So, something very traumatic and life-changing happened in my life recently. That being said, I probably won’t be posting here for a while, at least until things calm down and somewhat go back to normal. I’m still pretty new to this account, but I would like to thank those of you for being a part of my experience so far, and I’m sorry for not interacting more often to remind you all of how amazing you are. Please take care of yourselves and be well.

Ever After

i’ll run with you;

through misty forests,

across whispering seas,

playing endless games

of hide-and-seek—

find me in the hollow tree

reading moonlit stories

of how we came to be,

skipping through the pages

to see if it’s a happy ending.

February Dreams

i watched the gold leave

these old broken trees

in the early-late winter,

snowfall coming down

when i chose to let you go.

the apple blossoms bloomed

february dreams of you and me

on cold nostalgic evenings,

nightfall blanketing over

as i reached out for the phone.

Forevermore

arms stretched wide,

embracing the winds of the open seas,

sailing with you, lover of mine,

sleepless on the deck,

fishing for those lost dreams of yours,

taking up the bed—

get some rest, my dear,

i’ll hold you close ‘til morning comes,

reminding you i’m here.

Castaway

leave me here,

laying amongst the wreckage

of this ill-fated ship,

sapphire waves washing over me,

filling in the cracks

of my oh, so hopeless soul—

i shall rebuild in this solitude.

Flowers in Helsinki 🌸

Echo of Passion

recitations

of my favorite stories;

tales of love,

emotion and beauty,

i desire to share,

but my voice,

raw with expression,

is an echo of passion

as i talk to myself.

Out of Sight, In My Mind

i lay with the flowers

while i watch you play,

striking each petal-soft note

like the letters of my name.

your voice of sweet serenity,

love an ethereal dimension,

and when the song concludes,

i’ll know it wasn’t a dream,

for the keys are still dancing

in the wait of your return.

Shame

it’s hard, i must confess,

allowing your eyes

to bore into mine,

when the mirrors in my room

are facing the wall.

Lovesick

empty wine bottles,

drunk blue ink words,

love inscribed letters

float across the sea.

sick heart coddled,

a directionless bird,

my messages for her

sung from the trees.

a never-ending novel,

articulation deterred,

perfume lost sweater

cold under the sleeves.

The Songbird

a bird in a tree,

next to trees full of birds,

yet when she sings,

her song can’t be heard—

if no one will listen,

then what is it worth?

Heavenly

beside the throne, she sits,

head rests upon the arm

like an angel kissed by grace,

the light of dawn her halo,

a crown of suns and stars,

and down below, i wait,

before the velvet staircase,

watching her above in awe,

yearning for each step closer

to the moment we can meet,

petals raining from ceiling

as our hearts, at last, unite

on the long-awaited day

of this celestial ceremony.

Bottom of the Ocean

you part through the waters

of my regenerated soul,

my dearest lover, forever,

reaching the deepest seas

overflowing inside of me,

just beneath the surface

where blue ripples shine

upon my arms like the tides,

beautifully bewitching,

but i’m afraid i must let go,

for the current is too strong—

love should not hurt like this,

yet i’m submerged in the abyss.

High Hopes

the world’s disappearing

in the sound of your voice,

lulling me to a peace of mind—

the last piece of my heart,

still beating in your hands

while i bask in the serenity

of tender consideration—

the last piece of my heart

unscathed by a dagger,

though i see yours on hand,

glinting in the moonlight

of these midnight hours—

a cruel thought, i trust,

if ever to cross your mind,

would not be acted upon,

for you’d simply walk away,

parting with a swift goodbye

sharper than any blade—

a cruel thought, i trust,

if ever to cross your mind,

would not be acted upon,

for i hope you’d choose to stay.

Letting Go

i wish, and i wait

for you to come back to me,

though perhaps there’s a lesson

in your everlasting absence—

you were never mine,

nor were you ever meant to be,

but i’m forever yours,

hoping, soon, my heart be freed.
