Eternally Emerald

My sanctuary, my beacon...
with you in my life...
I always know where home is

The world could be on fire
and in your arms I would find
the towering strength that has
kept me safe...

The population could suddenly
go deaf, and yet they would hear
how loudly your eyes speak

The food for my soul would be
the fortress you've given me
risking everything and thinking
nothing of it

And in return ...
What do  I have for you?
Only the color of my love that
will eternally blanket your soul


"...I am a river in winter,
quiet in the eyes of most
but deep,
swift and full of life
to one, lucky enough to fall through the ice.
