The sky forgets it ever stormed. a sunbeam slips through the cracks No invitation, just warmth. Dusty leaves turn green again without apology. You are not stuck. not broken. just between blossoms. The Earth never asks why you paused. It waits. Ice melts into lemonade. pain fades into stories. Every summer starts from scratch No pressure, just promise. You can change like the wind. softly, or all at once. There is room for reruns and redirections. Even lost paths grow wildflowers. So rest, but don’t give up. The sun is still in your corner.

Like Summer Does
What is this desolate place?     Is he showing me this?       Why would he take me here?     Snow?     Or is it blood?     The air feels heavy with despair.     It's suffocating.     It's so.....     ......hopeless.       This can't be;     the world inside his heart, can it?     Where is he?     The trees here are hollow,       their branches like fingers pointing at me.     Blaming.     Begging.     There's a house ahead.     Falling apart,     like it's been grieving for decades.       A single photo swings on a broken wall,     too blurred to make out.     Is it him?     Or is it us?   I walk deeper in.     The snow crunches,     but it doesn’t melt.     Where is he?

Heart
The garden butterflies are all dead. Wings torn, Head crushed. Some lie still on the petals, While other lie limbless on the soil. So why are the flowers still smiling? The leaves dancing? Are they actually numb Or were the butterflies enemies Instead of friends?

Friends?
Why do dead people get more flowers than alive ones? Is regret greater than gratitude? Why do graves bloom with petals of sorrow, while the warm hands, still reaching, are left cold and empty? Why do people love children but neglect old parents? why do we cherish youth, soft , unwrinkled but aver our gaze from the hands that built our world?

ANSWER ME.
I ravage myself in hopes, but purity was all u needed. Crinkled bedsheets, White snow turned red and purple, Is this your kind of pretty? My love is such a wretched thing, To keep within and about. I spoon it to your lips, And yet you spit it out. I built a castle from scattered bones, Laced it with echoes of your name. Yet every wish turns out to be ash, And every ember dies the same.

EMBER
Maybe I should've stopped him more. Like a moth, drawn to the flame of my silence. no matter how warm it feels, too much light is bound to burn. Even if he is happy now, he might wake up with ash in his mouth. Sometimes, I am afraid of your unconditional kindness-- like rain falling on a paper house. Beautiful, but destined to collapse. Even if it's a fleeting connection, I am afraid that one day... you might regret me.
