The storms began— wild, relentless, a fevered sky unraveling, shadows tearing at the garden’s heart. Winter struck hard, its ice a prison, yet beneath the frost the roots still burned— aching to rise, aching to bloom. The sun was hidden, but not gone. I felt it glowing behind the dark— a secret flame, a promise waiting, a light to return. The wind came savage— a thief, a lover— shattering walls I thought unbreakable. It stripped me bare, yet in the ruin, light was born. No goodbye— only silence. Yet even silence throbbed with your name, and in that name I came alive. Years have passed, yet the wind remembers. It stirs my nights, it drives me restless, wanting more. It is not over. I am still here— your light, your storm, your dawn returning. When the storm breaks, I will not hide. The light in me will find the light in you.

Ice a prison
The storms began— wild, relentless, a fevered sky unraveling, shadows tearing at the garden’s heart. Winter struck hard, its ice a prison, yet beneath the frost the roots still burned— aching to rise, aching to bloom. The sun was hidden, but not gone. I felt it glowing behind the dark— a secret flame, a promise waiting, a light to return. The wind came savage— a thief, a lover— shattering walls I thought unbreakable. It stripped me bare, yet in the ruin, light was born. No goodbye— only silence. Yet even silence throbbed with your name, and in that name I came alive. Years have passed, yet the wind remembers. It stirs my nights, it drives me restless, wanting more. It is not over. I am still here— your light, your storm, your dawn returning. When the storm breaks, I will not hide. The light in me will find the light in you.
