Big Blue House

That big blue house

with the swing out front

and creaking stairs inside.

That big blue house

with the window teeth

and window eyes.

I lived in that big blue house

for years and years and years.

My parents lived there too.

They gave me a key one day,

one day when I was ten,

and one day when I was twelve we moved away.

Now here I stand

in front of that big blue house.

That big blue house

with the swing out front

and creaking stairs inside.

That big blue house

with the window teeth

and window eyes.

The key they'd given me

still fit the lock

but the house no longer felt like home.
