I woke up this morning from a dream.

Isn’t it how I’ll wake up young again? I’m a sailor heading to international waters Fuel in my belly...

On the Day You Arrived That day, when I asked—quietly— for peace, a reply came not in thunder, but in your breath. No trumpet. No sign.

We named you Arian, but the sky had whispered it once, softly, before we did. And now, each time I see...

I sat there for what seemed an eternity. I lost myself in an ocean of orange and red. How poignant, Staring off into the remnants of yesterday. how beautiful to recall a sun that slowly gives its life so that others may live. How inconsiderate a solitary tear to acknowledge a sacrifice. A subtle shiver as the shedding of my skin....

Congrats ERA! Dreams broke, Desires too! After the father, Of great gratitude!...
