I sat upon the bridge’s edge and watched the daylight fade, waiting for you. Then came the knowing: you were the sun beyond my sky, never to rise for me again. I am the moon luminous in the quiet night, near yet forever apart, meeting you only in shadow. You chose your heavens, and I chose mine: yours bathed in day, mine steeped in midnight. My love was a lunar eclipse rare, passing, beautiful never meant to endure. Time carried us onward, and I understood at last: you were always the sun, and I, the moon. We were foolish enough to believe we could hold an eclipse forever, forgetting such wonders are fleeting. So I leave these words unfinished for some endings are kinder that way.

Lunar Eclipse
When I look into her eyes, I do not see eyes -I see a silent ocean teaching the moon how to shine. Two deep wells where the night comes to drink, And my wandering soul forgets its own name. There is a garden growing inside that gaze, Petals made of light, roots made of secrets. Time sits down there like a tired traveler, And even pain forgets the road back home. Her eyes are not windows; They are doors left half-open by the divine. I step in, and suddenly I am no longer a man, But a drop returning to its sea. Something in them calls me The way the sky calls the birds at dusk, The way silence calls the prayer. No words, no promises - Just a pull older than memory. In that dark, shining depth, My storms grow quiet, My questions lose their hunger, And I begin to understand That love is not something I found there… It is something that was waiting To find me. So I keep returning to that sacred place, Not to look,But to dissolve!!!
