Do not look for me
Hidden in a fort
Beneath icy snow
Still falling carelessly above
Between the daffodils and daisies
Amidst the cool grasses
Of a wakening meadow
Along the dunes on the beach
Betwixt the waves
Crashing on the shore
Encompassed by leaves
Strewn across the ground
In no particular way
In the obvious places
You presume to find
A wandering spirit
I will not be there
Instead look within and find
A life otherwise uncommon
With its own rhythm
A heart’s journey
It is there you may find
Who you are seeking
It is there you will
Find me lost

Beneath crystal shards
Lies warmth, awaiting the thaw
Of winter’s cold breath

Though light filters in from far up above
A candle illuminates, her unending love
For buried deep within these pages, bound
A story is told of a love, quite profound
Each word is penned in invisible ink
Into each line, her feelings would sink
These books held her secrets, no one could see
Her life in the parchment, a true mystery
He opened the books, left here, all alone
The pages were empty, no words was he shown
Holding them nearer, to the candle’s bright flame
He knew there was something, it whispered his name
Closer, he brought the blank pages toward light
No words did appear, yet he felt something, slight
She whispered her love, but he caught not a word
So she stayed a closed book, spoken but unheard
