The light brown shade around your iris match each freckle dotted on your nose
Making a guide across your skin from your infectious smile to the dimple encrusted into your cheek.
They trail to your arms which keep me safe from the 3am terror that haunts me at night, each crevice of your body matching to mine.
They end at your chest, which is a haven for my head after a day of mental turmoil, soothing the self doubt with your fingertips.
Your heart guards mine
From the day I took it from my chest and put it into your capable hands.
The antidote to any anxiety ridden words that spill from my mouth.
I want nothing more than to continue watching the rain kiss the ground and the sunrise burning the sky with you.
You are and always will be my home.
