Every great love starts with broken earth.She showed up like spring rain on fallow land — unexpected, steady, soaking in deep where the ground had gone hard and cracked from too many dry seasons alone. I didn't plan on letting anyone dig in again. But there we were, sleeves rolled up, breaking ground together.First came the foundation: late-night talks poured like concrete, setting slow and strong so nothing could shift us later. We leveled the doubts, hauled away the old debris of past hurts, and staked out our corners with promises that felt as solid as rebar.The framing went up fast — laughter for the walls, shared dreams for the roof beams, trust hammered in nail by nail. We built high and wide, rooms for arguments that turned into understanding, hallways lined with inside jokes, a porch for watching sunsets and storms alike.But houses aren't just built; they're lived in. Weather comes. Winds test the joints. Rain finds the leaks you swore you'd sealed. Some days we patched quietly, side by side with caulk and forgiveness. Other days the blueprint tore, and we had to decide: rebuild the same way, or draw something new."Breaking Ground" is that moment before the first shovel hits dirt — full of fear, full of fire, full of the wild hope that two people can take nothing but raw land and time... and raise something that stands. Something that keeps the cold out. Something worth every blister and every sunrise spent planning the next wall.Because the best homes aren't the ones that look perfect from the road. They're the ones where the foundation remembers how hard it was to start, and the roof still echoes with the sound of two hearts choosing each other, day after heavy day.This one's for anyone who's ever stood on bare ground with someone they love... and decided to build anyway.

Breaking Ground
Baby, don’t you take this wrong
But I had better tell you why.
I've been up all night thinking
That I have to tell you why
We've spent a little time together
And I know why
I could tell you we're breaking ground
Breaking ground
Breaking ground
A little bit of dirt and time
Breaking ground
Breaking ground
A little bit of dirt and time
I know your dreams
They whisper in my soul
I know that I can give you
All of those things that you want me to
If we could just go a little further than we are now
Can we break a little ground?
Breaking ground
Breaking ground
Another shovel full of dreams
Breaking ground
Breaking ground
A little bit of dirt at a time
(Lead Break)
Stand here beside me
Let me whisper this in your ear
I want to tell you what I'm thinking
And I'll keep it close and dear.
It may not be forever
But at least we’re breaking ground
Oh girl, I know you want to
Break a little ground
Breaking ground
Here’s another shovel full of dreams
Breaking ground
Breaking ground
A little bit of dirt at a time
Breaking ground
Breaking ground
A little bit of dirt at a time
Oh, breaking ground
Mark S. Holman
