I AM HOME (Octosyllables)

in you

Only your words can make me smile
Like no more reason I could cry
You hug and kiss me through the mile
Your love shines through, we both know why

Only your voice can make me strong
Like no more reason to fall down
You help me see where I belong
I care no more for those who frown

Only your heart can fill my dreams
Like no more cause to like new things
Within the rain I see sunbeams
A balanced life is what it brings

Dear, only you is whom I love
When I found you, I stopped to roam
You are the gift that's great to have
With you I'm safe, I'm truly home.

A great poem on love and belonging. Often in life comes along a special person who helps us to see life in the right perspective and to realize our true calling, our mission in life. It's a great feeling you have done full justice to in this lovely poem, Dhaye.
