It’s Then

When I see her beauty

When I see her 
Her beauty isn’t just 
in her reflection
It’s  in the way 
we share presence
each day 
For more than anything 
I have come to 
value her mind
see her heart 
and recognise 
her soul
and I realised 
that’s  who I love 
This is what makes 
her feel
Seen
Heard 
and beautiful 
	*
When we just fade 
into each other 
With the internal 
thrum thrumming
of our heartbeats 
gently stirring together 
and silencing 
the worlds drum drumming
	*
It’s in our 
togetherness 
when we feel 
each others 
simple movements 
As we respond 
to the challenges 
and know that 
we are bound in love 
and together 
we are stronger
