MY UTOPIA

Here, I am safe

Here, I am warm

Here, I can breathe

Hide from the storm

I never thought I'd find this place

This secret little nook

Yet, by some sweet twist of fate

I found it without having to look

It's my favourite spot

In the whole wide world

& nowhere else comes close

To this rarity unfurled

Absolute perfection

Peaceful, calm & quiet

If someone tries to pry me loose

My, how I shall riot

This is my home

Where I belong

Once, I was weak

But here I am strong

I see stars that shine

Instead of stones

I see a life to live

Instead of bones

I smell sweetness

Instead of decay

I smell the start

Of a brand new day

Everything sparkles

All shiny & new

Glittering & glowing

In an opalescent hue

I never want to leave

& if you'll have me, I'll stay

Because here is where

All my fears are kept at bay

This place I speak of

Is quite unique

Only one exists

& it's my private boutique

No one else may enter

It's for me alone

As I breathe the secret scent

Of your masculine cologne

My utopia

Is in your arms

Side by side

Connecting palms

You're my heaven

Here on earth

& because of you

To love I gave birth

You're my heart

My blood sings your name

Since I met you

I've never been the same

So I'll keep you as a treasure

A precious gift from above

We fit together perfectly

Like a warm & perfect glove

Two souls as one

For all eternity

I know that you & I

Were always meant to be
