Homebound Hearts: Finding Shelter in Each Other's Love
They say home is not a place but a person,
And I have found my home in you, my love,
In every moment, you are my anchor,
A steadfast presence that keeps me grounded,
And yet, you are also the wind that drifts
Me towards my dreams, with every storm survived.
Together, we have weathered many storms of life,
And found in each other the missing person
Who completes our soul, and helps us drift
Through every obstacle with boundless love.
You are the earth beneath me, firm and grounded,
And yet, you lift me up, my constant anchor.
With you, I feel secure, held by your anchor,
Even when the winds of change assail my life.
You are my rock, my foundation, my grounded
Sense of purpose, my partner, my person
Of beauty and depth, who inspires my love
And guides me as we journey through life's drifts.
Our journey together has been full of drifts,
But in each other's arms we find our anchor,
A love so true that it transcends all love,
And binds us together through the storms of life.
You are not just a place, but a person
Whose love keeps us secure, and our souls grounded.
In this world, where everything seems ungrounded,
We have found each other, and ride the drifts
Of life together, united as one person,
Held fast by the strength of our love's anchor.
For in each other, we have found a home
That shelters us, and makes our hearts overflow with love.
And so, my love, let us celebrate our love,
For it is the foundation that keeps us grounded,
The place where we find refuge, our true home,
And where we weather every storm and drift.
For you are the one who is my anchor,
And I am the one who is your person.
They say home is not a place, but a person,
And in you, my love, I have found my anchor,
The one who keeps me grounded, and lifts me through life's drifts.
Together, we create a love that is special,
That inspires us to pursue our dreams with zeal,
And lifts us up, no matter how hard we fall,
For in each other, we have found it all.
We are home, my love, in each other's arms,
A place where we are safe from all life's harms,
A haven where we can be our truest selves,
And share our deepest hopes and fondest dreams.
Our love is a symphony of emotions,
With every note in perfect harmony,
A masterpiece that inspires us to be
The best versions of ourselves that we can be.
For in each other, we have found a home,
A place where love is the foundation stone,
That holds us close, and makes us feel complete,
And fills our lives with joy that is so sweet.
And so, my love, let us continue on,
Our journey through life, with hearts that beat as one,
For we have found in each other a true home,
And together, we will weather every storm.
