-Death Gives Life Value-

The specter looms, a silent threat,
A shadow's kiss, a debt unmet.
Each fleeting breath, a borrowed grace,
A fragile gift, a fading space.

A ticking clock, a mournful sound,
A barren field, a lifeless ground.
The weight of time, a heavy chain,
A prisoner’s plea, a futile strain.

Yet, in this gloom, a flicker's seen,
A spark of hope, a dream, a scene.
A chance to live, to love, to feel,
To break the chains, and truly heal.

Though death may claim, and life may cease,
It gives to life a bittersweet release.
For in its shadow, values bloom,
A fleeting joy, escaping doom.

A preciousness, a heightened sense,
Of every moment, every essence.
A thirst for life, a burning flame,
To chase the sun, and conquer shame.

Though death may loom, a constant fear,
It makes each breath, a treasure dear.
A fleeting grace, a precious art,
To live and love, with all one's heart.

The Monster Within

The monster within There's a shadow in my thoughts, A beast I cannot flee, It whispers in the silence, This monster in my mind.

It grows at every memory,
Turns dreams to darkest night,
I feel it in my veins,
Its claws grip tight.

A reflection in the mirror,
A face I recognize,
But behind these ever of mine,
The monster quietly lies.

I wear a smile by daylight And walk a careful line, But when the night surmounds me, The monster's voice is mine.

It feeds on all my worries,
And grows from every fear,
I try to lock it deep away,
But Still, its always rear.

Am I the cage, the keeper
Or the beast keeper, that hides inside?
the answer's last within me,
Where the monster and I collide...

THE HUMAN MOON

He was a creature of the dim,
a being of shadows, a man whose light was a mere flicker, a feeble glow. He was not meant for the blinding sun, the clamorous day. His nature was nocturnal, his essence, the quietude of the night. He was a moon, a pale satellite, orbiting a brighter star. Yet, in his own, modest way, he illuminated the darkness, offered a gentle guidance, a silent comfort. He was a necessary evil, a quiet necessity, a being whose limitations were as much a part of him as his existence.




You dont have to be the sun to shine.

My love, a soul so kind and true,
A heart that understands me through and through.
You listen close, without a frown,
When worries weigh me down.

You see the best in me, it's true,
Even when I feel lost and blue.
You offer comfort, a gentle hand,
A love that's rare, across the land.

You never judge, you never blame,
You embrace my spirit, fan the flame.
Of hope and joy, and dreams untold,
A story waiting to unfold.

With you beside me, I can soar,
Reach for the stars and evermore.
Explore the world, with you as guide,
With love and trust, we safely glide.

Thank you, my love, for understanding soul,
You make me whole, you make me bold.
A love like ours, a precious find,
A love that's truly one of a kind.

From yours truly, Thea.
