  • In a Heartbeat

    In a Heartbeat

    The pulse of my heart knows no direction but you, it beats to the rhythm of your name, each breath a promise that there is no space, no time, that can stretch wide enough to keep me from you.

  • You Returned

    You Returned

    Forgive me for loving you so fiercely, for binding myself to the image of you that once danced in my dreams. But know this: you can wager on the stars, bet on the turning of the heavens – this heart will not open its door again. No, not for you.

    Evening Stroll

    Until You Decided It Wasn’t

    Loss settled in my bones, a weight I carried with each breath, each step a reminder of the spaces you no longer filled, each day a struggle to find meaning in the void.

    Let Me Paint You

    In the vast night, Constellations try to mirror The depths of your eyes But fall short, An echo in the void, Unable to capture your grace

    What The Stars Tell Me

    What the stars tell me About you tonight Is everything I already know, Yet in their ancient, Timeless way, They remind me, I am blessed by your light.

    If you ask me, my soul, Why I cherish you so, It’s the light in your eyes, And the promise they hold

    Her eyes Where I lived and died Many times over Her eyes That have given me A longing for life again Her eyes That moved me to believe In dreams after years Of drifting through Emptiness
