My Safe Haven

By Nivedita Khatri

She is more than a feeling

she is a sensation

A sensation so sublime

makes me believe that I am healing

her hugs feel like home

her smile feels like a warm hug

her laudable aura

makes my heart smile

she knows what I want

before I even ask for it

how can someone be this admirable

it’s just beyond me

the safest i’ve ever felt

was in her womb

from the first time I held her hand

we’ve both grown so much

she is my home, my soulmate -she is my safe haven
