This Shared Moment

Warm eyes staring back at me,

shining with love as full as the sea.

Smiles shared as the time ticks by.

We see no one but each other,

as we dance our hours away,

gleefully happy in each others presence.

We know that nothing lasts forever,

but to us, this moment will.

It’ll haunt the depths of our minds late at night.

As we’ll think of every fond moment in great light.

This love may not last, but our shared glances,

our shared giggles, laughter, and joy will.

For what’s the point of living if we don’t cherish it?

  • Losing Someone

    Losing someone you love,

    hollows out a part of you.

    One day, you have them,

    and the next,

    you’ll never see them again.

    The realization stings,

    worse than the sun's engulfing hug.

  • Untitled?

    When the chaos of the day 

    gets washed away  

    and the serenity of night descends, 

    I begin to wonder, as the stars ascend. 

    Trying to put puzzle pieces together 

  • Intertwined

    When only the stars shine,

    the winds’ whispered rhyme-

    echos across the land.

    As the sea longs for the moon.

    The magnetic pull-

    Weaves their fates together.

    Intertwining them for eternity.
