Maybe
Havran Jun 2015
She
isn't really
the Sun,
yet she is
what it represents;
life,
hope,
and warmth.


She gives meaning to the words
*Celestial Incarnate.

His letter
Havran Oct 2015
"When you go, I will miss you very much, and this you know. You would never mean to hurt me, Darling, but you have to leave me behind as well, and the part that makes this difficult is that I will tell you to take care, even when I want you to stay."

She & I
Havran Sep 2015
"She is gentle sweetness, and I was stubborn hardheadedness;
I knew naught of loving softly until she showed me the way."
Havran Sep 2015
"Meeting you
is a life event
that shifted
all
world tendencies
toward you.
There is darkness,
and there is light,
and yet
both
converge
in your direction.
Your love
could unravel
all my broken
pieces,
or mend them
back together,
and no matter
the aftermath,
I will stay.
As long as
your love
is with me.
As long as
your love
is with me."
Havran Jan 2016
"If only I could be with you by the sea,
and feel the wind on my skin
and the sand on my feet.
If only I could be with you on that shore,
helping you light up our bonfire
to keep us warm the whole night.
If only I could be with you now
and let all my troubles fade away
with
the
sunset
because you are all that is good
about today,
or tomorrow,
or even years hereafter,
for with you I am content,
for with you I am happy."

Their Time Apart

Havran & Kafka (III)
Havran Dec 2021
The passage
of time
has become
meaningless
for
the Raven,
with each
insipid day
melding into
a disorientation
so atrociously
grey.
Through
the pale,
two moonlight orbs
gaze back;
the ebon figure
still as stone,
outside
looking in.
Free. Free.
the Raven
thinks to himself.
Would you kindly?
The Raven croaks.
Please free me.

Foolish Heart
Havran May 2015
Yearning for your love that will always be true,
Offering these words as a memory of you.
Under the light of the ever-watchful moon,
Affectionately wishing that I'll be with you soon.

Reminiscing of the times when we were together,
Every moment of it all made me feel so much better.
Maybe someday I'll find the right words to say,
You are my only one, and may you never go away.

Surprising me with every little thing that you do,
Uttering your words that are as sweet sa honeydew.
Never wanting to see me down and alone,
Singing me to sleep in your lovely caring tone.

Here in my thoughts, a sweet surrender.
If only this moment could last forever.
Now that we're close, I won't ever let you go.
Eyes that tell me, of a wonderful tomorrow.

A little while ago, you gave me a promise,
For the one thing that you'll never want to miss.
To be with me, no matter how far apart we are,
Even if you're gone, we'll be wishing on the same star.

Rendering me speechless with your sweet caress,
Through the sound of your voice, I have to confess.
Here in your arms is where I want to stay,
Endlessly caring for you, in every single way.

Reaching out to a photo of you and me,
And smiling at how the two of us were meant to be.
Inside my room, I end this one short note.
Not even sleepy, hope you'll like what I wrote.
:)
Havran Jun 2015
You are not weak.
The very fact that you are reading
these lines right now
is proof that you have
survived
until
this
very moment.
There will be scars,
and pain,
and heartache,
but believe me
when I tell you
that you were born
for better days.
True happiness
isn’t born of luxury.
It exists in us all,
and everything
around us.
There are people
who hate the Sun
when they feel its
warmth upon the ground,
yet if they set
their eyes to the sky
would some witness
the canvas of a world
that it’s helping
you to see.
There are those
who spend
their whole lives
screaming at
the universe
to notice their existence,
but this world is already
fine as it is,
and it is the chaos
within ourselves
that hinders us
from noticing.
Find
what makes
your insides sing,
and what sets
your soul on fire.
For you are
a living
celestial body,
and the key
to the universe’s
treasures
was already
within you
from the beginning.

Lines
Havran Sep 2015
"If each of us are tiny dots in the vast expanse of the universe, then perhaps we leave lines wherever we go. And these lines, they intersect with other lines, and that’s how we’re all connected. All of us. Living under the stars,
making our own maps, creating our own trails."

These moments
Havran Sep 2015
"There are times when we lose ourselves in the people and the things in life that we love, and perhaps it is in these moments that we find who we are, and where we belong."
Havran Jun 2015
What have you done?
She is splendid,
even
in
simplicity,
and you
squandered
the very gift
of her presence.

All your life,
seeking
and
yearning
instead
of
being
and
staying
in Love.

You are *blessed

by The Cosmos of coincidences
that finally led up
to your meeting,
You are blessed
to have been called
Love.

What have you done?
Do these words reach you now?
*What have you done?
Havran Apr 2022
Some scars appear
as immaculate smiles
painted below weary
eyes that know
nothing but to
quietly turn away.

Some scars,
permeating,
turn
the air
in one's
lungs
to sulfur,
spreading
counterfeit
blood
through
the veins
like an
acrid,
festering
poison.
Some scars,
corroding,
leave a heart
surrounded
in rot,
and
a mind
courting
the
seductive
caress
of
endless
oblivion.

Turn back now,
toward that mirror.
Stay foul, rotten
and helplessly hurting.
Some scars heal
in complete surrender.

And I know
how the past
can be
a difficult thing
to forget.
Bruised knees
and
bleeding elbows
were far easier problems
to fix than matters
of
the heart.

But don’t forget
in each somber
embrace of defeat
is your soul
lying in wait,
resting to rise,
your judgment solely
superior yet finite.
Take it slow.
Pain fades overtime.
Scars simply remind.

........
And I wish you had none of it,
but let the marks on your skin
be a testament to
the wild call of adventure in your heart.
Let the heaviness in your chest
tell you that there have been
instances in your life
where you have chosen to be brave;
that sometimes
—when you let the love in—
the hurt also enters,
completely uninvited,
and sometimes it's
the one that stays.
Sometimes we
take the leap,
and sometimes
we don't walk away
from it unscathed,
but that doesn't mean
you are not all the good
that is found in you
—that doesn't mean
you weren't enough;
You are the sum total
of all the things you love
and care about,
and no amount of hurt will ever take that away from you.


You are a constellation of scars born from mysteries and imperfect Ever Afters,
and one incredibly unforgettable journey.
~M.C & D.A.

There is something
magical in this moment;
how your voice is
reaching someone
whom you haven’t met yet,
when right now,
they think
the world
of you.
It kills me
inside
to be
separated
from the Sun.
I want
the
bright
places
now too.
Embrace me
with your Daylight.
Keep me in your Dawn.

From within
the confines
of his
solitary
dwelling,
the Raven
gazes outward
through
barred
windows.
The sky is
but
a
distant
memory
now;
the warden
has him
under lock
and key.
His
wings
have long
since atrophied,
he misses
the sand,
the wind,
the cerulean sea.

Don’t force yourself.
You don’t have to.
It’s a bother.

…It’s not.

You’re the one I’ve been waiting my whole life for,
I can wait an hour or two or even twenty more.
Rest your head on my chest, I’ll take care of the rest.
A thousand miles means nothing when you love me best.

I’ll hold both your hands through the storm,
and sing lullabies to you to keep your heart warm.
Make you breakfast in bed, with forehead kisses on your head.
Not a single word of love will I dare leave unsaid.

To you do I give my most willing surrender.
For I love you most, may you always remember.
