No matter what happens in the future,
this will always be true of right now.
Today, I woke up smiling
because you were holding me.
Yesterday, in the low light of your bedroom
it felt like we were playing house.
Outside cars drove by on rain-slicked streets,
mugs of hot tea sat on the windowsill,
and I’ve never felt safer than under that blanket.
With you and within you,
I am finding the Home I’ve never had before
as the person I’ve never been until now.
