You were
The light
When my days
Were pitch black

You were
The laugh
When my throat
Gave sobs

You were
The comfort
When my heart
Ran with fear

You were
The love
When I had
None to give

You were
The moon
When the sun
Burned me up

You were
The stars
When my sky
Grew empty

You were
My breath
When my lungs
Gave up

You were
My bandages
When my skin
Ran with scars

You were
My heaven
When my brain
Went through hell

You were
My prince
Before I knew
I was a princess

You were
My world
Before I knew
I had one

You are
My love
The beat
In my heart

You are
My world
The spinning
The turning

You are
My stars
The Galaxy
My existence

You are
My prince
My king
My husband
