You Warmed My World

Written by: Lyrikai Winterhart
Date: Sunday, February 25th, 2018
Addressed to: Everyone


I used to wake up
to goosebumps and shivers
because upon throwing my blankets to the side
the cold of the world consumed my body
and my heart filled with sadness
and I always thought I'd rather be that way
than filled with the anger and greed
this world so wholly contains
I'd always felt I was misunderstood
because nobody saw me or the way I see life
they always wrote me off
and went along dooming the world

But upon meeting you all that changed
I stopped being afraid
I grasped a meaning
that I'd been searching for, for so long
You warmed my heart
and upon waking I no longer shivered
and my goosebumps remain
but they are only from the tingle
I get upon feeling your touch
My eyes are opened
to the love this world truly has to offer
and I can see now
because I found my loving shelter inside of you

Penned by my hand on the 6th of Daedalan, in the year 765 AF.
