Where Love Begins - POEM

 "Where Love Begins"

I found you in the quiet,
not in the thunderclap of fate,
but in the hush between my heartbeats—
the space where hope still waits.

You were not the storm I braced for,
nor the fire I feared to hold.
You were the warmth of morning light
through curtains soft and gold.

Love didn’t shout its entrance,
it whispered through your smile,
and every glance you gave me
made this world more worthwhile.

You saw me not as broken,
but a soul still learning flight—
and held my trembling fingers
like they were made of light.

In you, I found the courage
to be fragile, to be real,
to let my silence tremble
and to finally let me feel.

Love isn’t just the laughter,
the kisses, or the night—
it’s staying through the darkness
when no one else would fight.

So if ever you should wonder
what your heart has meant to mine—
know you were the home I longed for,
the one I couldn’t define.

And I would choose you always—
through the ache, the fall, the climb.
For in your love, I found myself,
and that… is love’s design.
