Better Half

I hear your words

through my wounds.

You are beautiful in a 

way that I cannot explain.

There is a heart

inside of you,

heard & echoed.

For every ending,

lay by my side.

"I'll be yours forevermore."

I wanted love,

but not just anyone's.

Just someone to love me

through this, with tears

fighting to stay within my eyes.

It was there you built a home,

to help me struggle 

with whatever darkness.

Time & time again,

you give love from your soul.

A beautiful human being.

You light the fire in front of me

& I fall asleep each night

with nothing but love.
