Where Love Was Known
Where love was known, the light stayed long, the walls remembered every song. The table held our laughter near, and even silence felt sincere. Where love was known, the nights were kind, no lonely shadows crossed the mind. A simple touch could quiet pain, and hope would bloom like summer rain. Where love was known,…

the lonely place

The Space in Between II
There is a place where silence grows,Between the yes and no one knows.A breath before the words are said,A thought that lingers in the head.Between goodbye and one more stay,Between the night and breaking day,Between a touch and letting go,Lives everything we never show.The space between is small yet wide,Where hope and hesitation hide.And sometimes…

Imagine
Imagining what I think he meantwhen he said that he would never leave.He meant not right now—but some day.I heard foreverbecause forever was what I needed.I filled the spaces between his wordswith promises he never made.A pause became hesitation.A touch became devotion.A night beside me became a lifetime,and every almost-loveI dressed in certainty.He never said…

In Silence
And we sat there in silence,not a word spoken,but spoken just the same.Your eyes said what your lips would not,and mine had grown too tired to ask.Between us lay a thousand words,each one wearing silence like a mask.The clock kept talking for us,tick by aching tick,while shadows stretched across the roomand something in us slipped.No…

Tending Dead Flames
I kneel beside the ashesof what we used to be,cupping cold embersas though they might remember heat.I feed them old promises,dry apologies,and photographs where our smilesstill knew how to touch.But love cannot be warmedby one pair of hands.Still, I strike another match—watching it flare, tremble,and die against the darknessyou left behind.

The Timber Twosome
Old wooden sweethearts stood out in the grass,sharing one umbrella with weatherproof class.He leaned a bit crooked, she stayed by his side,both stiff as a board but beaming with pride.If rain started falling, they wouldn’t complain—they’ve probably been standing through decades of rain.

When the Rain Stops (Sonnet)
The heavens wept the tears I could not shed,And every cloud recalled your fading name;The storm drummed sorrow through my weary head,Till every dawn and dusk became the same.Each drop became a memory set free,A whispered promise carried on the breeze;The flooded earth reflected only me,A lonely soul brought trembling to its knees.Yet storms, though…

The Wolf and The Sparrow
Beneath the pines where moonbeams played,A lonely wolf through twilight strayed.His silver coat caught evening’s glow,As silent winds began to blow.He wore no crown, he sought no fame,Yet every forest knew his name.With careful paws and amber eyes,He watched the stars adorn the skies.Upon an oak, both small and fair,There perched a merry little sparrow…

Breedlove
Breedlove walks with pockets fullof rose-red seeds and cyclamen.He plants them where the sidewalks crack,then hums until the bees come back.He sprinkles kindness by the gate,leaves laughter where the lonely wait.His hands smell sweet with garden rain,with mint, warm soil, and sugarcane.He tucks soft wishes under treesand sends them sailing on the breeze.By morning, every…
