Change is the only thing that never changes.

They ask
why he hasn’t moved on?

How does he explain
She wasn’t a season,
Or a phase,
Or an accident.
She wasn’t arbitrary
She was his gravity in human form.

And time
in all its wisdom
cannot teach me
how to unlove you
how to let the ache
elude my bones.

She opened the drawer slow
Pulled the papers outside

Many decisions surfaced
what could’ve gone different
Some words remained
Malformed across the margins

Her eyes scanned once
She stacked them near the window
And watched the wind
Releasing the weight of the pile.

The reek of his past,
a bitter musk,
made him believe
he was unlovable.

She smelled the loneliness
he hid behind his wildness.
She doesn’t flinch.

He hung new stars
in the dark clouds of his doubt
he’d forgotten to look up at
and it made him feel
he’s enough.

She treads among dry leaves
Once bright, now flickers

Trapped in the mundane
Her steps slow down

Like fractured light
Sliding through seams

She might rise
Lifted by her flame

Unfolding toward horizon
Where darkness breaks
And light returns

Still I return to where you were
&build a vigil out of dust
a thousand sunsets folded in
to prayers I never had to speak

I do not need to see your face
to feel the way your love remains
in every hour,soft & full
a light that rises with dawn
You were,& are & always will
be part of all I am.

We are oscillating between the in-betweens,
maybe, yes, and almost.

When we’re miles apart,
a tether made of unseen string
winds its way around my heart.

I don’t know where this path may lead
or what tomorrow’s sunrise brings,
but if I fall, I know you’ll be
the wind to lift my wings.

Softly, evening paints the sky
With colors that make me sigh
In quiet hours I recall
Your laugh, your touch, your all.

Though time may stretch between us now
I wait beneath this solemn bough
The night will hold my whispered prayer
That you’ll return and find me there.

Can you feel it?
The mystic touch
Between your breath and mine
It knows
No time, no end, no fear
Just the endless now

Come
Let us go
Beyond the edge of reason
Into the heart
Of what we’ve always known.

In her sweet voice
she asks, "would you like one more?"
Brownie or kiss?
He teases her with a wink
His eyes full of mischief.

With you,
love didn’t feel like effort.
It felt like the air I breathe,
like you were already part of me.

I never prayed for heaven,
but you gave me something close.

You watched me sleep,
whispered “angel,”
your fingers brushing my lips.
And I knew you meant it all.

bookmarked notes that mirror mine

Neither yes nor denial,
choices open like unfamiliar hallways

Doors appear
none clearly marked

Steps pause in this liminal space,
between what was and what may come,
silence keeps its answers.

I called
The wind to guide me
Into your realm

A place where your love sings
And walls dissolve

I stood
Amidst the stirring of endless dreams
Drawn ever closer to your warmth

I wished
To stars for space to hold us
Constant and calm
Through everything
