Remnants of you

I remember 
the way your laughter 
dances in my mind
like a sweet melody that plays 
long after the music has stopped
I can almost feel 
the warmth of your touch 
as if your fingers still trace 
the contours of my skin
leaving an indelible mark on my soul
and as another sun sets
I close my eyes and find myself chasing
the remnants of you in a gentle breeze
hoping to catch a fleeting whisper 
that carries the essence of your love
back to me

Our love

if you listen closely
you can hear that time
speaks the loudest
when it is at its slowest
I hear the tick-tock
as I hold our love
in the palm of my hands
I close my eyes
and get lost in the moments
we steal from the clock’s grasp
finding eternity in your embrace
and every single second 
here with you
feels like a lifetime to me

Unspoken vow

his touch was a gentle promise
an unspoken vow that ignited 
the dormant embers within her 
softly dancing across her flesh 
with the grace of a poet’s pen
tracing contours and telling stories 
only they understood
she felt his fingers navigate 
the map of her existence
and they etched memories 
onto her soul that would forever 
define their love

The beauty within you

Perfection is an illusion, it makes us believe we have to be like the ones we see online or in magazines. It makes us think that we need likes, follows and shares to feel important and to be seen. It’s a trap to make you think you are less than because you look different than what “society” says we should look like. 

I am flawed, but I am also alive, breathing, and evolving. I embrace my flaws as the fractured fragments that make me whole, for it is in these cracks that the light of resilience and authenticity shines through.

Flaws give texture to the masterpiece that we are. We are masterpieces, just as we are. Don’t ever change your true canvas for anyone. I see you and I see how beautiful you are. Keep shining that beauty.

In my daydreams

reality gently tugged 
at the edges of my daydream 
reminding me that he was miles away
yet in that moment
I knew that the distance between us 
was insignificant
for in my daydream
he was with me 
his presence as real 
as the beating of my heart 
and as I slowly returned
to the world outside my mind 
I couldn’t help but smile
knowing that I would carry him with me 
always in my daydreams 
and in my heart
