What She Means to Me: A Poem on Love and Gratitude
Updated: 2 days ago
In June 2020, Jenn gave me one of the most unforgettable birthday surprises of my life: an all-expenses-paid weekend at a 5-star hotel in Montreal. From incredible food to countless moments of laughter and love, it was a celebration that I will never forget. Inspired by that weekend, I wrote What She Means to Me as a tribute to her, to us, and to the love we share.
It was a special surprise and I will never forget it. I can only hope my words can do justice for the love I feel, for the love we have and the love we will have forever more! Sorry for the sap but I can't help it!
"The only thing we never get enough of is love; and the only thing we never give enough of is love." - Henry Miller
These words perfectly encapsulate how I feel about Jenn and our journey together!
What She Means To Me
Tell my brain
No refrain
Can’t strain
Our domain
This is my aim
No need to explain
She brings me fame
Bells and whistles
Sparkling and glistening
Always listening
My sign
My symbol
She even has crystals
Sprinkles and sparkles
Her berth is my castle
Energy
Synergy
The things she does to me
For me
With me
She holds me tight
Treats me right
Every day
And long through the night
The shadows are cast
Far far away
We are taken
Now is our play
Here to stay
This is our way
Mainstay
Each way
Anyway
Both ways
Today
For many years
And years beyond
Will speak these words
Our darkness gone
Only light
Shall shine here now
Erase these creases
No furrowed brow
Our essence is phenomenal
Partners complete
There is no past
That can compete

About me
I have been writing poetry since I was in my mid-teens and find it completely natural to express myself through written word. I am from the UK but I am now a full time slow traveling digital nomad after meeting my amazing fiancé Jenn on Instagram, as part of my journey as an author.
My writing has always been unpredictable and without structure; it is freestyle from completely random moments when I feel compelled to write. My content is mainly long form and focuses on love, heartbreak and life.
Let's stay in touch
Come and connect with me over on IG! Along with poetry, I share stories, highlights, tips and tricks from four years of full-time travel. I also like to drop facts and interesting things to know about places too! Would be great to meet you over there.
