My Divine Prize (Sonnet #144) Poem by Tina Baaklini

You brighten my heart and life with your love,
People I know are nothing, you're my world,
Fate blesses soulmates' union here and above
For their hearts and souls are destined to merge.

You'd move mountains and seas to see me smile
You care for my worries as World War Three
Upon your shoulder my safe haven lies
Tied we are, one soul for eternity.

I'll never forget all the words you say
I feel them as deserts feel raindrops
Engraved on my heart's wall, they're meant to stay
Their tender touch is as breeze at hilltops.

Should anyone ask me about my life,
I'll tell them about you — my divine prize.
