My Lover —- Poem by Natasa To

You are the calm within my storm,
A steady light when nights grow long.
With wisdom quietly in your eyes,
You see the truth beyond disguise.

Your mind is sharp, your heart is kind,
A rarest beauty of heart and mind.
You never rush what time can teach,
Yet somehow, you're always within reach.

You speak with grace, you love with care,
You make the heaviest moments easier to bear.
Mature in soul, yet soft and free,
You bring out the best in me.

And when I look at you, I know
Love isn't only sparks that glow.
It's understanding, trust, and choice—
It's finding peace inside one voice.

So if I could choose you once again,
Through every beginning, every end,
I'd choose your heart, your thoughtful soul—
My smart, mature, beautiful whole.
