The Frozen River
Written: August 18, 2023
______________________________________________________________
In the half-light of another realm,
A day without you—my heart overwhelmed.
I claim the stillness as my own sun.
Seeking solace until our souls are one
Time slides across the surface of a frozen river.
Echoing memories that bear my heart shiver.
I wander through the depths of my mind,
Searching for—the love I left behind.
Skirting the stars—I yearn to find the way.
To bestow back the light and bear your stay.
But I do not cognize when I became the night.
When darkness consumed me, I took flight.
I have lost my memory—my thoughts a haze,
But the feeling of your love is still ablaze.
My dear, all I remember is you.
And the way you made my heart pursue.
In the depths of my soul, your love lingers.
A flame that burns, my eternal muse, my singer
I do not remember when it all began.
When your love courts—my heart spans.
But I agnize that in the half-light embrace,
I found my purpose, and I found my grace.
With every persuasion of you, my dear,
I became a poet—free from fear.
Words flowed through me as a gentle breeze.
Painting pictures of our love with ease.
In the half-light of another realm,
I found solace—I found the helm.
