Every heart could be a loving hearth
Every chord you played, the strings were art
You gently pick the melody
of my then-favourite song
You are a strength to which I gladly belong
You are the home of my house
You are the steady of my roam
I feel I’m far too lucky
that in name we each other own.
I feel glad in any case
that I get to listen to you
from another room.

“You are the home of my house. You are the steady of my roam.” I love that. I find such distance at times between me and those I love. But there is also a steadiness, perhaps best expressed just the way you have: “You are the home of my house. You are the steady of my roam.”

We are all roamers of words here, I guess, and we can probably all relate to what you’ve said. There are always beautiful moments to be recognized and celebrated, aren’t there, and the more we can generate the better for everyone, maybe, or hopefully. :))
