I used to wonder what it felt like To be the only one you turn around But now I know You look at me Like I’m the answer to a question You’ve carried for years Your face holds every scar, Every chapter life carved into you And somehow, That made me love you more We’re not from the same place in time We’re different stories But we chose the same line On the same page And that’s enough. Loving you awakened something in me It bloomed before I even knew what it was And when I told you I finally told you— You smiled like you already knew Your voice still catches me off guard Not just the sound, But the way it wraps around me Like home. You are indeed my home. You’re strong in ways I can’t explain And yet, There’s still something boyish in your kindness— Innocence that time never touched. In your arms, the world makes sense. I stop bracing for cold. On that snowy night, when we finally fell asleep With our breaths syncing into the dark— I knew I’d never be alone again I was afraid you'd hear my heart Beating too loudly— But you pressed closer. And I didn’t have to hide.
