As you spoke those precious words, the ocean in me calmed and came alive all at once.  
My heartbeat created a wave that shifted the pull of the moon.  
My night skies lit up and stars paled in comparison to the depth of love in your eyes.  
In only a second of time, all I knew had forever changed.  
The indifference I had surrounded myself with melted and caverns to bury my soul filled.  
The gift of you illuminated all confusion and in that moment, I was safe.
