Her Haven

This is romantic poem that I wrote about my boyfriend, and how he's saved me from my chaotic home life.

Her Haven

It was new feeling to her

Had always been insecure

Darkness loomed over her household

Chaos, when she crossed the threshold

She ran as fast as she could,

No one thought she would

She found a place to rest

Happiness, at its best.

His arms, 

He was her haven. 

He kept her safe from the danger,

The addiction, the fights, the anger

His kiss was medicine,

that lasted until she was alone again

She found something beautiful in the world

New possibilities unfurled

His warm chest was a place to lay

She had found a reason to stay. 

Once doomed a hopeless romantic maiden,

He was her haven.  

She prayed and prayed for a ring,

She wouldn’t return to her upbringing

Now she had a chance,

For that first dance

To keep a hold of something real

To know what it was like, to truly feel

He was her chance to be,

More than she ever could have been

He

He was her haven.

No hate please :)

I actually like the "No hate please", too. lol I don't know how someone would, but I have also seen some strange and awkwardly rude comments on this site for little reason than to rouse a comment back for sport. It's beautifully endearing to "hear" you script these patterns of thoughts and the heart's agenda that is specific to you. THESE are those moments you can't "practice" for. You can learn to write, dictate, affect, and create, but if it's not in you to find a way for us to relate or fall in love with you when you are opening your heart in poem.... then it may not be real, and that would distract and deliver a totally different feel and message. Some of my friends on this site, somehow, bring to light as you do, these very loving lines that are not compromised by their age or experience in writing!! Great job with this..... you are beautiful to read and a real joy, MissJenaBlair!! I don't know if you are on my friend list or not, but I treat you as so, and respond to the ones I love, voting 100/100. xoxo -Mark

You don't know how much that means to me. Thank you so so much. I'll be sure to add you as a friend. :)

This is my favorite of yours. I just happened to find you on the home page of "Who to watch" and started clicking. I am really glad I did. I love how it speaks of someone who apparently came from a troubled past, a broken family and found their one safe place, that some never do. I can feel the love in this. Another great write, perhaps your best one only according to me. ;-) Good luck to you & your airman. I wish you the very best.
