I’ve no clue of what the morrows will bring
But the thought of you makes me dream
Of blue skies and sunny weather,
And quiet nights next to each other.
It used to feel so odd to even think about romance
Back when love was just a word without a chance
It’s way too ineffable even for poetry to convey
For my part, I know nothing of certainty, but I’d love it if forever you could stay

My thoughts were raging.
But gentle was your warmth that
calmed all my quiet.
For quiet was my journey
and I was drifting alone.
’twas disengaging,
suffocating, spiraling.
And then you heard me.
Carefully you reached for me;
you held me and I was home.

One way
Two steps
It’s a one in a million shot
One chance
Three seconds
And a few more hundred thoughts
One word
Four takes
A thousand and one times
One glance
Five heartbeats
And “Hello” was our finest rhyme

And each smile a heartache
For each memory a tear
Of all beautiful mundane
It is love that she fears

phosphene-flooded lights
and sweet petrichor lead me
straight to your solace
where we’re limitless
dancing to the melodies
in all rhythmic grace
for days are endless
as nights are never fading
and time slumbers deep
when fate tells of us
and all of the memories
that our promise keeps

And when morrow doesn’t come
I’ll reach for you…
Somewhere far across-
along the winded roads
where it all began.
Somewhere deep within
the history of those
that’re yet to come.
I’ll search for you-
If morrow doesn’t come,
I’ll search for you.

All I feel is weightless.
Lost in all translation.
Stuck in golden shackles
of endless abdications.
So let me fall from glory.
And into you solace.
Let me yearn for refuge.
Let me yearn for grace.
For I am but a captive
of one too many crimes.
I seek of vindication.
Make me your divine.
Chase away my heartaches.
Shelter me from harm.
Let my spirit slumber
in peace and gentle warmth.

Sail me across rivers
of moonlit oceans
along the cracks of
my shattered soul
Let the sound of your
sinful, silent laughters
leave me haunted-
lead my spirit home
Bask me in all glory
of your golden-ruffled glow
and lay waste me a myth
of divine inferno
Waltz with me
throughout dawnless nights
and come paint me
our own concierto
Tell me, what is it you truly desire?
