I gazed into the mirror’s eye,
And it whispered of lives left behind.
"Whose lives?" I asked.
"Yours," it sighed,
"but never truly yours.”

Vianne Lior Feb 18
Shells whisper of time,
Fathers weep for fallen sons,
Words dissolve in dust.

It's no wonder
at all
unless you are
in the picture
being an integral part thereof

otherwise
all that is
is incomplete
just a distant view
of speculation
of conjecture-
without the grandeur-

we are each
part of others
and of nature-
only in coming together
is the oneness
the fullest realisation
the sublimest rapture
the matchless splendour!

Soulless
I see you in the dark,
A shadow lost in time,
But your light calls me,
And I find the climb.

Through all the years we've missed,
And all the love we sought,
I reach for you in silence,
In every battle fought.

Your tears fall like the rain,
Washing all that’s past,
But still, your voice whispers,
A promise made to last.

I will stand beside you,
No matter where we go,
Through the quiet and the chaos,
Through every ebb and flow.
Vianne Lior Feb 17
I wandered through a house of glass
Where echoes lined the walls
And every sigh was catalogued
In airless, silent halls

A ribbon—folded into dusk
A letter—laced with dust
A ring—unfastened from a hand
A vow—reduced to rust

The floorboards hummed of footsteps hushed
Of names—no lips would call
And shadows, draped in tattered lace,
Danced soundless through the hall

I placed my heart upon a shelf
Beside a wilted rose
And watched the evening take its leave
Where love—unburied, goes.
