The harmony of twinkling lights

Sing to me, their song of night

Rich melodic tones do grace

The vastness of their ebon space

Illuminate, the passing time

Celestial poetry, unwritten rhyme

Silent words, which cannot speak

For in this night, its stars, I seek

Photographs of days gone by

When it was only you and I

Sharing hopes and chasing dreams

Oh, how simple it all seemed

Our life, together, we grew as one

From morning light, to setting sun

Until the day another came

To carry on the family name

A bundle dressed in shades of blue

No longer only me and you

Then we added just one more

A blessing in pink, with ruffles galore

Two little humans, made from our love

We have been blessed, from Heaven above

A Single Spark ~ #RomanticTuesday

With fire’s light, the candle glows

Across the room, the passion grows

Heated, we ignite the flame

As our bodies ever claim

Desire, with a single spark

Ravenous, in this room, so dark

Each word, a whisper in my ear

As into you, I disappear

Waiting for Shadows

Whimsical shadows that play in the light

Taunting and teasing you every night

Hiding in corners, they fill you with dread

You’re starting to wonder, is this in your head?

Or are they just playing, these spirits so dark?

Choosing to haunt, on a whim, on a lark

Then disappearing from view, once again

Wondering if they’ll return and when

Lying awake, with the night, you’re attune

Waiting, for shadows, in the light of the moon

IMG_1369
It’s hollow in the darkness
Where thoughts and fears collide
The rapid beating of my heart
That tears me up inside

Can you hear my silent cries?
Soft whispers in the night
Do you hear me calling you?
When things don’t go just right

Don’t leave me here, alone,
Again, I cannot face the day
These battles, much too hard to win
My body, worn and frayed

Answers to my questions
Left lingering in air
I’m asking for your comfort, please!
Just let me know you’re there

A sign to reassure me
Everything will be alright
It’s hollow in this darkness
I need to see your light
