the soul is a candle
in
the
hourglass of time
as we walk
upon
the rice paper
between
Heaven and earth sublime
yet
we set fire
to soul
this time

Oh, love, don't you drift on a lonely tide,
My heart's tethered anchor, by your gentle side.
Don't sail these vast oceans, without me as crew,
Together we'll weather, whatever comes true.

The wind whispers warnings, of tempests unseen,
But hand held in hand, we'll face every scene.
Don't leave me adrift, on a lonely shore,
My compass is broken, I need you the more.

Oh, love, don't go wandering, lost in the night,
My guiding star's dimmed, without your warm light.
Stay close by my vessel, let love be our sail,
Together we'll conquer, where destinies prevail.
Oh love, don't go without me

No need for a compass, no map to unfold,
Love isn't a destination, a story untold.
It blooms in the present, a warmth in my chest,
A smile in your eyes, a place I find rest.

Love whispers in laughter, in moments we share,
In gentle embraces, a comfort so rare.
It lives in the kindness, the way that you see,
The best part of me is reflected in thee.

No distance can sever, no future unknown,
Love's essence surrounds me, wherever I've flown.
For love, my dear love is the air that I breathe,
Wherever I wander, with you, it will weave.
When love is the light you bring

And love is where I am

If love is still evergreen, a vibrant display,
Though seasons may change, it won't fade away.
Roots run deep and steady, through winter's harsh bite,
Holding strong, a promise, a love taking flight.

Branches, though weathered, reach high to the sun,
Tenderness blossoms, a battle well won.
Memories, like leaves, whisper tales of the past,
But love's vibrant essence will last forever.

New growth emerges, defying the years,
Laughter like springtime, dispelling all fears.
If love is still evergreen, a constant, a friend,
Its beauty endures, until the journey's end.

No storm can disorient, no current can sweep,
When love is the harbor light, guiding us deep.
Waves may crash and thunder, doubts may arise,
But love's steady beacon pierces veiled skies.

A refuge from the storm, a solace so bright,
Guiding weary vessels through the darkest night.
Warmth in the distance, a promise untold,
Love's beacon forever, brave, steady, and bold.

In its shimmering welcome, a haven we find,
A love that endures, forever entwined.
When love is the harbor Light

North guides the lost, south whispers of rest,
But love, my true compass, surpasses the best.
Love shall be my sunrise, painting the dawn,
A fiery passion, a light newly born.

Love, my guiding star in the twilight's embrace,
Guiding me homeward, to a familiar space.
No map can define it, no border confines,
Love's boundless journey, forever entwined.

Eastward with hope, westward with dreams,
Love's compass directs, where my spirit beams.
My love shall be my east and west
