the air still carries your name
though your voice is long gone
I find pieces of you in the quiet
reflections in sunlight
echoes in the breeze
I smile
and gather them all
trying to hold them close
before they slip away
love lingers
but it can’t stay
and yet
I will remember it
always

Last dance
under a dimming sky
they swayed in a quiet rhythm
steps worn soft by memory
the world around them fell silent
just the whisper of her dress
and his steady breath
filling the cool air
shadows stretched longer
the music slowing
as they held each other close
feeling the weight of time
in each step
the last note lingered
and they stood still
clinging to that final moment
before the night took them back
Beautiful interlude
you were a season of light
in my days
a beautiful interlude
where everything seemed to pause
in its perfect place
the world felt softer with you
each moment brighter
like we were two notes
in a song
that only we could hear
and though time moves on
I will always carry the warmth of you
my most beautiful chapter
Shattered
the past lingers like shards of glass
cutting where memories are still tender
broken shadows gather in corners
slipping between moments like ghosts
each step forward tugs at hidden wounds
where echoes of voices
whisper in the stillness
it is a quiet ache
a reminder that what was shattered
cannot be pieced back
it remains a haunting within
stitched to the bones
fading but never truly gone
Pieces of you
losing someone special
is like the sky losing its brightest star
the world continues to turn
but the light is dimmer
and the nights are longer
your absence echoes
in every familiar place
a quiet reminder of a love
that lingers in the spaces
they once filled
time slowly moves forward
but a piece of their heart stays behind
holding onto the moments we once shared
Time
time slipped through her fingers like sand
each grain a moment lost to the past
she watched days blend into nights
seasons pass in a blur
and the years weave an intricate dance
of memories and regrets
the ticking clock echoed in the silence
a constant reminder of what was gone
and what could never be again
in the quiet of her heart
she mourned not the minutes she had
but the moments she missed
lost to the relentless march of time
I’ll be there
I hope you know
that if you ever need me
all you have to do
is close your eyes
and find me in the shadows
where the sun shines
I’ll be there
sit with me in the warmth
and find me
in the many memories we’ve made
and in the moments
that are to come for a lifetime
Paper memories
paper memories
fragile and timeless
hold the essence of our journey
they are the faded love letters
tucked away in a drawer
the ones I read
over and over again
just to replay your words
to smell the scent
of each letter
hoping they will fill
the cracks in my broken heart
and I wish I could have
just one more moment with you
because I’d never let you go
again
One last sunrise
*picture is my own photography*
the spaces you left behind
are now filled with echoes
of our past
a bittersweet symphony
of what was
and what could have been
as time marches on
the ache of missing you remains
in the quiet moments
when the world around me
is so still and silent
I find myself searching
for glimpses of you
in the everything
and I wish I could
I could just have
one last moment with you
one last chance to share
one last sunrise
13 Years
Wow, another year here on WP, doing what I love… Poetry. Writing about love and loss, life, the world, nearly everything. It’s incredible the amount of talented people that I’ve met here. Like seriously talented. However, that aside, I’ve met the most beautiful people here. I wish I could name you all, but I’ve been fortunate enough to get to know some of you outside of WP and one in person (M ❤️) To my best friend Christopher, thank you for your true friendship, the in depth conversations, all the collabs we have done and the beautiful and exciting project we are working on.
I’ve lost a lot here too. Not just in the blog world but in my own, some are just more devastating than others in many ways. I’ve cried too many times, laughed, loved so much, grown up here really. Life has been hard, it’s been wonderful, heartbreaking, incredible, trying and fun, but I’m still here. Writing along. Continuing this writing journey with YOU beautiful souls. I am so thankful for all your love and support of my blog, it truly means so much to me.
friends are the vibrant threads
that weave moments into memories
like stars in the night sky
they illuminate our journey
friends are the laughter
that dances in the air
the comforting presence
in times of need
and you all have become
the keepers of my most
cherished chapters
