2026

A calm mind and a contented heart—
love and life, my greatest written art.
My everything is within arm's reach,
I am free, living without a leash.

Universe, healthy relationship—
calm energy, this peace is its gift.
Embrace wickedness, find its beauty;
I am filled with positivity.

Everything is worth it in the end,
genuine joy-I don't need to pretend.
It is like the sweetest love letter,
everything keeps on getting better.

Beside me, my lover-sound asleep,
I smiled and stared at him lovingly.
Years together when some doubted it—
troubles passed, in each other, we fit.

Never foreseen to fall for this guy,
both stubborn-we almost didn't try.
One confessed first, rest is history—
unconventional, but now married.

Courting, love, marriage then a baby,
but we're interestingly crazy.
Thinking of the first awkward meetings
became the most comfortable feeling.

Didn't take long for our first child,
her name with simplicity and style.
Then a son after the said daughter—
because of them, I wake my lover.

Morning rituals with little rascals;
breakfast with us, playing with young pups.
Their innocent laughter makes my day,
my forever can be felt today.

Home for doggies, babies, and adults
like a weird silly delightful cult.
The early hours are always too short
before their daycare and our work.

A farm I manage, fashion I do;
in office endeavors, his skills grew.
No shortcomings, money is stable;
each step-a calculated gamble.

We are each other's inspiration,
we impress them with our creations.
Hand in hand, to be more confident,
insecurities never present.

We're patient to see developments,
we learned how to work hard with intent.
Know what you need and focus on that,
Not everything is received with luck.

I never thought I'd be this happy,
today I know no one can break me.
I fought and took risks for what I love,
and these are the things I am proud of.

Expect some hardships and obstacles,
but know that all things are possie.
Soon you will be grateful that you stayed,
and realize you've gone a long way.
