THE ONLY LIGHT I SEE

THE ONLY LIGHT I SEE

When the world turns dark and the shadows creep,

‎And the city settles into it's restless sleep l,

‎I find my peace in the light of your face,

‎A beauty that time itself cannot erase

‎

‎It's not just the way your laughter rings true,

‎Or the spark In your eyes, like a morning dew,

‎But the soul beneath, so steady and kind,

‎The rarest treasure I ever could find

‎

‎They say that the heart is a wandering thing,

‎Always seeking a song it hasn't heard sing,

‎But mine is a bird that has found it's home,

‎With no desire or will to roam.

‎

‎For why would I reach for a flicker of light,

‎When I hold the sun in the middle of night?

‎Your grace is my garden, your trust is my shield,

‎To no other beauty shall my heart ever yield.

‎

‎In every quiet breath and every soft word,

‎the sweetest melody I've ever heard,

‎You are the anchor, the heart, and the one,

‎My journey is finished; my searching is done.

‎I was inspired to write this because of the deep sense of security and admiration I feel for my Girlfriend. In a world where people are often distracted by " the next best Thing," I realized that her unique qualities - her patience, her inner strength, and her radiance - have made my heart completely content. I want to express that my loyalty isn't just a duty , but a natural result of how much I value her. She is my " Midnight Anchor," the person who keeps me grounded and happy no matter how dark or chaotic the world becomes.
