Your Sanctuary

Allow her to be
Your sanctuary
Where the walls
Stand strong
And true

Where a loving heart
Waits patiently
To envelop
With ardent notes

Allow her smile
To light up the night
Vanish darkness
Shattering doubt

Where shadows fade
Under an amber glow
Relaxing the days chaos
A beacon of hope

Allow her arms
To encompass you
Giving a sense of peace
When all seems lost

Where the world
Melts away
And reverie takes over
Incinerating confusion

Beautiful and positive poetry shared dear poet.
"Allow her smile
To light up the night
Vanish darkness
Shattering doubt"
We need the light of love and kindness. I liked the complete poem and the above lines were my favorite. Thank you for sharing the amazing poetry.

All of us need a partner that is a place to feel safe and loved even when the outside world is a battering hurricane.

Reading the heart of your poetry here, knowing the glory of one who can transform everything into heaven. The sanctuary of light and love in the smile of your sacred one.

Wonderful comfort in well chosen words- for my part, I enjoy poetry that trips off the tongue like music-, and this is a song well sung.

In a relationship a woman should be a mans sanctuary and vise versa
