Love’s Room

Love’s Room

Our hearts hold the key

To a well keep secret 

A penetralia so rare

An alcove we share

A place so quiet

A space so sweet 

An unlocked door

For us to explore

Comfortable and cozy

Our private nest

It’s yours it’s mine

So easy to find

Sunlight streams softly 

Curtains flutter gently

Ours and ours alone

A niche to call our own 

If we’re not together

your heart’s still at home

With gifts left behind

For the other to find

a thought that lingers

And hangs in the air

A word yet unspoken

A dream yet unwoken

These are the things

That softly dwell

In our shelter so sweet

In our respite’s retreat

The moment you enter

The world washes away 

Be it morning or noon

In Love’s Room
