He leaves his love as petals on the breeze,
That dance and drift with soft, unspoken ease.
Though parted hands from love’s embrace must stray,
The petals linger, love’s touch shall not decay.

A stain eternal, joy and sweet content,
Impressed on time—a heart’s true testament.
Ink flows like tears upon his fragile page,
To reach her warmth, his tender words engage.

An infinite force, it lights the twilight’s span,
Though night ascends, its shadows cannot ban
The stars’ eternal glow, their whispers deep,
A love that even in the dark does keep.

Each syllable a fragment of his soul,
An entry to a haven, pure and whole.
A garden vast, where spirits wander free,
Through fields of bloom, past streams of memory.

Yet keys to such a place, in shadow lie,
Awaiting her soft touch to testify.
He writes not for the fleeting breath of years,
But for the echoes love eternal steers.

For we, mere threads within love’s boundless realm,
Are woven close beneath words' mighty helm.
A force both fierce and gentle to behold,
Unseen, yet endless, more precious than gold.

Locked deep within, it stirs the soul’s vast sea,
Yearning to blend with all eternity.
inspiration from Je te laisserai des mots by patrick watson
She is the sun, veiled behind darkened clouds,
Her rays of strength and warmth obscured,
Enshrouded by sorrow’s lingering veil.
Each fleeting beam that dares escape
Glows golden, rare, but fades too swift,
Leaving no tender mark on hearts too cold to care.

The heavens swell with clouds amassed,
Their weight forgets the sun’s true brilliance.
Her radiant light, a treasure dimmed,
Is buried 'neath their fleeting gray—
Lost in the haze of fleeting love,
Gone with the winds that do not stay.

Yet steadfast burns her radiance bright,
Her warmth unyielding, ready to bless
Those in need of her undying glow.
The moon, pale and frail, thrives only
By the gift of her enduring fire,
And the sky, stretched wide and cold,
Is pale without her light to guide.

Oh, poor sun, sovereign of the skies,
Her streams of light are freely given,
But no hand returns their gentle touch.
She is the heart the heavens crave,
Yet blind they are to why they shine.
Unseen, unloved, her glory lingers,
Forever lighting paths for those
Too blind to seek her face.
