23/F/wandering elsewhere feel sorrow and find solace through my words
I keep staring at the horizon like it owes me answers, but all it returns is silence, each passing day feels like standing on thin ice, like a winter lake held together by a breath of wind, and I fear the first step I take will crack the void open beneath me.

Whether the weather is sunny and bright, Or gloomy and grumpy and lacking in light; Whether it pours like the sky sprung a leak, Or simmers and sizzles for week after week; Whether it drizzles a soft little song, Or thunderous tantrums go booming along; Whether there's frost on the windows and sill, Or sweat on the brow from the afternoon grill; Whether it's hail or a storm with some flair, Or breeze that tousles and tangles the hair; We'll bundle or fan, with a smile or a pout. We'll dance through it all, come rain or drought. So, weather the weather, however it goes, In sandals or boots or with frostbitten toes, We'll handle the hassle, the heat or the chill, The weather's got mood swings but we've got the will!

Weather's Mood Swings
you were the night, a cold, endless night. a quiet weight that settled over everything, pressing down on the edges of my world, until each step was a struggle, as if gravity conspired to keep me still. the stars, though present, offer no solace. their dim lights flicker with uncertainty, as if the night itself is losing hope. each twinkle now felt like a whisper of things slipping away, as the brightest seems to be on the verge of fading into nothing. but still, i waited. i waited because the faint glow on the horizon felt like a promise. and i told myself that i could endure the dark if it meant seeing the light. the hours stretched, unyielding, each moment dragged slower than the last. i held my breath, counting the seconds, only to find that time had betrayed me— the dawn never came. somewhere in the stillness, i realized the truth: the night was not meant to end. it would linger, unbroken, swallowing hope in its quiet expanse. the cold crept in, not sudden, not sharp— 'twas a slow, deliberate ache that settled into the crevices of my bones, a chill i could never escape. was it my faith for tomorrow's morning that made the darkness so vast, or had i been destined to lose myself in the shadows? i'll never know. but here, in the heart of the longest night, i learned that some battles aren’t meant to be won. some lights fade because they must, and a deafening silence exists to be a reminder of what it means to ache. and now, as the cold breeze whispers through me, i don’t wait for the sun anymore. i’ve learned that not all endings are warm, some simply disappear, like a sigh into the void.

Three years of love, now cast away, A fleeting dream that couldn’t stay To me, those moments felt sublime, Yet you see them as a wasted time.

Head's heavy, eyes can't open wide Cramps twist like a knot inside, But sleep's a dream I am denied.

Restless Day
In quiet corners, a truth unfolds, Old issue rises, once left untold Though time has passed, the hurt is new, Can't help but weep for things I never knew.

unearthed sorrow
With just a bit more force With just a slight, deliberate twist, The delicate nerves may snap And this lowly life force will be snuffed.

Subtle Farewell
In daylight’s grace, I thought I’d healed, From wounds I swore were long concealed. But in the night, where silence screams, Self-doubt invades my fragile dreams. Inferior whispers fill the air, A dark reminder, ever there. Though daylight claims I've moved along, Night unveils the pain's old song.

Late Night Angst
From the dandelion puffs, Memories take flight in gentle fluffs, Borne by the breeze's tender kiss, As he found strength to embark in new bliss, With him went the gentle light, That guides me through each nightly plight.

Dandelion
She soothed souls, brought calm and peace, Yet within herself, turmoil doesn't cease So amidst the chaos, she seeks reprieve, But her own solace, she can't perceive With tears and doubts, she fights the tide, Hoping her peace won't be denied.
