They told us that it would not last.
That what we had thought was going
to be forever would only be until
we met the eyes of someone else
who could give us what was said
that every woman needs. But we
don’t need what everyone else
wants, and we don’t need to listen
to the words of those who can
only see love in one kind of light.
I look at you and I am home.
I am safe inside of a haven that 
we built with our own hands.
You are everything that I need,
that I want, and that I will always
crave, and no one else can tell us 
what it is that we need to survive.
