To Me, You Are

To Me, You Are

A Poem by Whitney Kleinhuizen

Not just by chance, it was all meant to be
There is a reason for all, undeniably
What you are and what you mean
are things to you that cannot be seen

 

 

You are the sturdy lighthouse among my raging seas
You are a safe haven and I, a refugee

 

 

You give me a strength that helps me survive
You pull me out of hells and you keep me alive

 

 

Reaching out your hands, you always catch me when I fall
You are the steady handrails, even when I can only crawl

 

 

You are the beacon of light that breaks through my dark
You give me something real and it stills my beating heart

 

 

You are the flowing love that floods my entire soul
You are an inner peace, one that makes me feel whole

 

 

And you are a soothing warmth that helps take away the sting
but you are much more than this, honestly you're my everything

 

 

So will you take me in, deep into your beautiful soul,
and down where your true essence lies, where your worth is more than gold?

Thanks!! My boyfriend was the entire inspiration for this one :)
Thought the spacing and stanza separation was strange, but the writing is still clear and potent.
