A.N: Hello all! Wow, it's been a really long time since I've posted anything here. But lately I've been having a resurgence of all my Stargate/John&Elizabeth feels, so hopefully there will be some new stuff to show for it. This poem isn't from John or Elizabeth's point of view specifically; it's more of a window on both their thoughts, since they're so in tune most of the time. Enjoy!
-The Only One-
I never expected to find a home.
I never expected to feel this way.
But this place is drawing me closer,
And you give me a reason to stay.
You aren't what I envisioned.
You aren't what I first thought.
And something about you pulls me in;
I'm safe, though I am caught.
I look into your eyes.
I see what you don't speak.
You understand like no one else;
Give strength when I am weak.
I can do what needs to be done.
I can say what needs to be said.
Rise up to meet the world and its demands,
And you're the only one who understands.
I've never felt this balance.
I've never felt this whole.
From minute one, just you and me;
Some matching of my soul.
We love this place like no one else.
We found where we belong.
And we would give up anything
To keep our city strong.
I can't breathe when you're in danger.
I can't stop my pounding heart.
It's always you I think of first,
Whenever disasters start.
With you I let my guard down.
From your eyes I cannot hide.
Every inch of me, from heart to hands...
And you're the only one who understands.
If I'm honest, this means more.
If I'm honest, then it's you.
By your side, my heart's at your command.
'Cause in the end you always understand.
