it sounds a bit

cliché to say

but in every

sense and in

every way

 

my home is

where you are.

 

the longer

we’re together

wherever

that may be,

our roots go

down to earth

and intertwine.

 

our hearts,

they beat

in time.

 

it’s not the place

where we

reside, it’s

the person

we’re beside

 

and you

are always,

continually,

increasingly,

committedly 

my home.
