POEM| This is All That You Are, My Love

You’re the air in my lungs
You’re my rain in drought
You’re my water in the desert
You’re the stillness in my heart

You’re my coffee in the morning
You’re the rainbow in my sky
You’re my jacket on a cold evening
You’re the cure to my pain

You’re my best friend
You’re my cheerleader
You’re my happiness
You’re my home
