Dearly Beloved

Since the day I met you,
I knew there was something different.
With acceptance in your eyes,
I knew I was safe.
Nothing mattered anymore other than you smile,
And the smile you brought back to me when no one else could.
I didn’t know what “home” meant until you showed me the way. 
The future is no longer a scare,
The past is no longer a factor,
As long as you’re with me,
The present is all that matters.
