My heart can't quite configure
To keep it all or pull the trigger
My mind can't quite figure
To leave it all or to keep the pressure

Hmmm, I struggle
Nothing to see, nothing to fumble
Watch my lips as I try to mumble
You're the prize, feel the rumble!

I try I try, I cannot deny
My heart yearns for her, so much I could cry
If you could see the vision, by all means do pry
The love I'd give, so good it'll light up the sky.

In a garden soft and sweet,  
Petals blush where sunbeams meet,  
Whispers of spring in every hue,  
Pink flowers dance with morning dew.  

Gentle blooms in graceful sway,  
Painting dreams in the light of day,  
A tender touch, a fragrant breeze,  
Nature’s love in vibrant ease.

Have you taken your time and seen the moon?
Oh how it shines, you could think it was noon
The wind blowing, the trees swerving with tune
The breeze, holding me back, taking me back to June...

I sit on my chair staring
My mind far and beyond adoring
If I could reach it despite the bearing
Maybe it would lead me to something daring...

Oh, he loves the way she smiles,
The glance that lingers for a while.
A spark ignites, then drifts away,
As if her heart can’t let it stay...

They dance on edges, close and far,
She shines, and yet, he chases a star,
Too bright to hold, too wild to claim,
Afraid to give her heart a name.

He feels it in the words she speaks,
The guarded truths, the shadows bleak.
A fortress built around her soul,
Afraid that love might take its toll.

He reaches for her, she pulls away,
He begs her not to feel dismay.
But fear’s a weight she wears like chains,
It binds her wings, it clouds the plains.

Why is it today she's happy, next thing she's apart?
One moment they're talking, next thing she departs?
Is it love itself she's hiding from?
A storm too fierce, a fire too strong...

And so he stands here in between,
A dream that’s felt but never seen.
He waits, he hopes, he wonders still,
If time will bend her iron will.

For he would give her all he is,
But only if she'll take his hand.
So here he waits, beneath the sky,
Wishing she'd trust what they are...

But until then, he'll watch her go,
With all the love she'll never know.

So far, yet so near,
Into the clouds, you disappear,
Words cannot fully vocalize how I feel,
So I’ll sit and write what I will.

You raised Mama, a woman I adore,
She raised me with all her might, you truly can explore,
I am grateful for that, what a gift you bore,
Now here we are, thinking of you ashore…

I trace back steps I never took,
Paths where I could have found you,
But life, in its hurried look,
Swept me past, and time just flew.

A man I barely understood,
Yet your silence holds me now,
In the places you once stood—
Echoes of what I’d allow.

Hands worn with stories never told,
Eyes soft with years unseen,
And here I stand, just growing old
With the spaces in between.

Forgive me for the hours missed,
For chances lost in light,
For in the quiet, you persist,
A lantern through the night.
I wish I’d sat with you awhile,
To catch the light you gave,
To know the man beyond the miles—
I carry what I crave.

So in this hush, I lay my words,
A heart I couldn’t show,
To honor you, though undisturbed,
In the love, that’ll forever glow.

I will forever miss you Nau, until the day we meet, Koma Nesa.
