So They Say

They say people change in years,
but you changed me in a day.
They say life is long and hard,
but in your arms I floated and swayed.

They mentioned about the darkness

that exists in the alleyway,
but you illumined me from within.
They proclaimed the world to be ravening,
but you kept me safe in your warm cocoon.

They say the day can be harsh
and the sun can give you blisters,
but you wrapped me tenderly
like the moon in the soothing night.

They believe the barren lands can never yield
but you transformed my impotent heart
into a loving blossom!
