Your Love- a free verse poem

To commemorate the three month mark of my relationship, I've written a poem. It's free verse, almost stream of consciousness.

Your love has saved me from the darkness I have come to know.
I had forgotten what it was like to be loved,
What it was like to cry
What it was like to smile.
But your love has shown me a new way to live
What it means to be alive
What it means to be young.
I can’t believe how much has transpired between us.
Never thought I’d see you in this way
Nearly a year ago when I met you
But now I’m glad for your love.
Your love wraps around me
Like a blanket in a cold winter’s night.
Your love has me protected
From fears that once ate me alive.
Now I can say ‘I love you’ without fear of falling
Because I know you’ll catch me
With the strength of your love.
