A Home of Books and Love

In a home where stories line the walls,
where books are stacked like ancient halls,
dreams unfurl in whispered tones,
a sanctuary where the heart finds home

He comes, a man with eyes so torn,
between his love and paths reborn
“I’ll leave,” he says, “but take him, too,”
and in that moment, the bond feels true

The love, now shared, a gift, a care,
a lover’s role, a love laid bare
no burden here, just lives entwined,
in the warmth of shelves, our souls aligned

The TV hums, a melody calls,
we rise together, breaking walls
hands in the air, feet on the floor,
dancing, singing, craving more

The song a thread, a sacred tie,
between the earth and endless sky
in laughter’s glow, the world feels small,
a house of books, but love holds all–
