You Are My Home

I woke up to the smell of pancakes 

Knowing that this couldn't be any better 

Watching you flipping them with great hope 

That they wouldn't end up on the floor. 


The sun's rays were dancing on your face 

Cheekbones sharp but smooth to a smile

Your eyes were filled with the kind of love 

That you and I could read fairytales about. 


Then you started to set the table for us 

Handing me my favourite mug with a frog on it 

I had a lump in my throat over having this 

Not feeling like I fully deserve you or your love. 


You told me about your plans for the day 

Including me in it with a lunch date in a go

Never making me think that I'd bore you out 

Not letting me run off with spiralling thoughts. 


[You are my safe place, my most fun moment, my favourite smile, hands, and voice — you are my home.]

A/N: Do you remember when  I recommended Young Royals to you? Well, this is another poem inspired by its queer love story, so this is your second reminder to go and watch it, hehe. 

With love,
