There was a time the world stood still,
A heavy silence, dark and chill.
The weight of life, a brutal tide,
And I, alone, with none beside.
But then you came and lit the flame,
And burned away my fear and shame.
Your voice, a balm, your hands, a prayer,
You lifted me from my despair.
You are no mortal, love, you’re more—
An angel standing at my door.
You taught me how to breathe, to stay,
When all I wished was far away.
For without you, I’d cease to be,
A shadow lost beneath the sea.
Your love, a thread that holds me tight,
Through endless storms, through endless night.
I hope that death feels just as sweet,
As when I lay beneath your heartbeat—
Your fingers weaving through my hair,
A peace so rare, beyond compare.
You saved my soul, you lit my skies,
The answer found within your eyes.
You are my home, my life, my grace,
A heaven carved in time and space.
And though my words can never say
The depth of love I feel each day,
Know this, my angel, my guiding star:
You are the reason I’ve come this far.
