Losing You Twice
Losing you once broke my heart.Losing you twice broke the part of methat had learned to live without you. I thought time would soften the ache,but grief has a way of finding its way home. There are no words for this silence,only memories that lingerand love that refuses to fade. Grief is love with nowhere…

Dulce Far Niente
I sit where the light fallsand do not move. Time loosens its grip,slips quietly pastwithout asking to be held. Thoughts drift in and outlike distant waves,never staying long enoughto matter. Nothing is required of me here.Nothing is expected. And in that quiet absence,something gentle returns.

Sleepless
She doesn’t say no,but she doesn’t say yes,and I’m left in between. I replay her wordslike footprints in snow,already fading. Some nights she feels close,other nights she disappears. And in the silenceI stay awake,trying to understandthe spacebetween what she givesand what I hope for.

In Your Eyes
In your eyes I find peace,like timeless waves that never fail.You carry light in your smile,a promise of warmth even on the coldest days. When you walk through the room,silence follows in quiet awe.And my heartknows the way to you without hesitation. If the world fell silent for a moment,I would still hear you.Because love…

Love, Sun and Bali

Bali breathes in colours that lingersoft edges, deep tonesair that wraps itself around youas if it knows you need it. There is a quiet gravity in being togethera pull that does not rushbut holdsthe way heat settles at the end of the…

Still You, Always
Even after the silence,after the cold that lived in my bones,after the nights that would not end, it was still you. Not the memory of you.Not the idea of us.But you. The one my heart reaches forwithout thinking.The one my body rememberslike warmth after winter. We broke in the wrong season,lost in pride and pain,yet…

A Quiet Hope Between Us
I’ve walked these days with echoesof the things we used to be,small moments turning weightlesswhen your memory finds me. I’m learning from the quieterplaces where we fell apart,yet somehow every lessondraws a circle around my heart. I will not take the worn down paththat led us into ache before,I’m choosing something softer now,a kinder way…
