Before you came into my life
Love always felt quiet to me
Whispered promises of forever
That could only be heard
Once the day had quieted
Love was a fleeting emotion
Not strong enough to survive life
Swallowed up by obligations
And muffled by responsibility
You came into my life by chance
Quickly wrapping me in your love
Like ribbons weaving through
Open wounds others left behind
Your love is a force of nature
A gorgeous whirlwind of emotion
Claiming yet protecting my heart
You make life’s chaos be still
Your love for me is like a roar
A physicality I can't pull away from
Your arms drown out all other noise
Every time they wrap around me
You are impossible to love quietly
I cannot mute the flood of emotion
I cannot quiet down the thoughts
Of what a life loving you would be like
My love for you will continue to roar
No matter how loud life can be
I promise to love you with every
Beat of my bursting with love heart
In your arms, I have found my forever
