somebody's dungeon

I wasn't expecting
to find them there
just the simple words
please know, I care.
I felt a caress
a gentle touch
my sweet love
they meant so much.
Right now, this moment
I feel you here
with me in time
our hearts so near.

Very nice feel to this.

In the line "a gentle heart touch" I think it would be stronger if you left out 'heart' here. You do use it later, more effectively and having it here might weaken the impact of the second instance.

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.
