"Where Love Holds, Joy Shines"

"Where Love Holds, Joy Shines"

She holds him tightly,

not to keep him from the world—

but to feel his love. His light.

His laughter dances with the wind,

bright, fearless, free.

And in that moment,

between heartbeat and horizon,

LOVE becomes something you can see.

Not measured,

not defined,

just felt.

Don't Fear Me.
