Snap of the past forgotten

Snap of The Past Forgotten
A fragile snapshot trapped in time,
A smile etched deep within my mind,
One moment captured, yet so profound,
An image shared, yet now all alone.
As memories fade like morning dew, 
What once seemed clear becomes a blur,
And through we yearn for those golden days,
We hold onto love, through it may pass away.
Thus speaks our ode to ephemera,
To moments that vanish without a trace,
A testament to life's true essence,
Embracing fleeting beauty, never to cease,
Treasured in the end.

Giving up on Love

Giving up on Love
In the depths of love's betrayal, I found myself adrift upon a sea of tears. Each wave brought me closer to my knees and surrendering, as if fate itself conspiring against me." Yet even as the tempest raged, I clung desperately to hope. But when faith turned to dust, and trust become a distant memory, I knew that love had left my soul possibly forever. Thus, with a heavy heart,  I cast aside my dreams of everlasting love. For what is affection but a fleeting mirage, shimmering enticingly on the horizon, only to fade away with the setting sun? I stand here at the precipice of love's end. The echoes of laughter and joy still resonate within our memories, yet the silence of solitude whispers gently in the wind. What is love but a flickering flame that dances wildly in the darkness, cosuming everything in its path before vanishing into the ether? Love betrays all when giving into the blindness of hope..!

Unrequited Love

Unrequited Love
I fall in a brink of forcing myself not to love? This forced action is beyond what most think is possable? If ever been in love it's hard to shake but true love that you've lived most your life with is 10 times as hard to lose or forget! No matter how much I wish for the love to return full, it must come to a scary stop at edge of a cliff I either decide to jump off of to my death or climb slowly to the unknown bottom off the side with risk of falling but grasping onto branches tightly hopping to not fall anyways? What little life is left in my heart is only thing keeps me hopeful I find the bottom before I fall completely? This feeling of uncertainty is scary on it's own and with your heart already week from this severed connection from the one you loved but now forced to let go! As I teeter on the edge still trying to make a decision my heart is twisted with unrash thinking, insanity almost takes effect, all emotions take me at once! I am now scared of a future without the one I truely loved but forced to try to forget them because the thought of them only generates pain makes life unbearable to think of without!! But the heart is telling you have to let go to live, or life will shore end at bottom of that cliff? But climbing this cliff may help you find life at the bottom of what's left of your heart??

As fare would have it, Destiny intervened, bringing them back together during the grand festival celebratting the arrival of spring. The entire kingdom gathered to enjoy music, dance, food and laughter. Amidst the revelry, Aiden and Adeline found themselves drawn irresistibly towards each other again.Their reunion sparked an immediate connection, igniting a flame of passion within them that burned brighter than any star in the sky. They danced under the moonlight until hours turned into days, losing track of time entirely consumed by each other's presence. As night fell, Aiden took Adeline's hand, leading her away from the bustling crowd and into a secluded grove hidden within the castle gardens. There surrounded by lush foliage and fragrant blooms, he pulled her close and gazed deeply into her eyes.

Amidst the quiet stillness of the night, a noise behind her startled her, something she didn't exspect, miraculously Aiden himself appeared before her. His expression radiated warmth and compassion, revealing to Adeline that he had in fact survived his journey home. Overwhelmed with joy and disbelief, Adeline threw herself into Aiden's arms, whispering fervent prayers of gratitude. Aiden explained how miscommunication led to the heartbreaking ruler of his death, causing him immense pain at being unable to reach her sooner. In that moment, all the darkness lifted from Adeline's heart, replaced by an overwhelming sence of relief and gratitude.Their love, thought lost forever, had triumphed against all odds. Embracing one another tightly, they vowed never to let anything separate them again..

A Summer Flower

Bellis Perennis Summer Flower

Of the sun-kissed fields and lazy day, 

Summer's gentle touch awakens you, a delicate bloom from earthy slumber, soft petals unfurling, revealing colors bright and bold as the sky itself. You sway gently in the breeze, a dance of life, drinking in the warmth and nourishment that systains you, thriving under the watchful gaze of the radiant sun. Your beauty captivates all who lay eyes upon you, a fleeting marval that blooms briefly, then fades away, leaving behind only memories of summertime's sweetness and the scent of your lingering perfume. Oh, Summer Flower, how you embody the essence of fleeting beauty and the impermance of life, yet your brief reign inspires us to cherish every moment, to appreciate the simple pleasures, and to remember that even the smallest things can bring great joy.

The Moon and the Ocean

The Moon and the Ocean
Your beauty is as glamorous as the moon in the dark sky's luminous everything around you for as far as I eye can see, stars twinkle in your presence, me as the this lonely ocean on the small planet full of wonders of my own we see one another from such a distance seeing each other's beauty in light or darkness? We view each other from such a distance admiring the wonders under our surface? Many wonders under mine but I'm only able to see your surface but it's enough to be taken back from the beauty you show me at night, makes my darkest of waters show it's deep secrets and brings life out of the shadows brilliance to waters? I can only love and view you from a distance but such a view you offer I wouldn't trade it for another light in the sky? The sun may have brought life into my heart and this world, but you shine on my darkness and cradle me at night, I may never get to hold you but your beauty will always shine at night, unveiling the beauty of the dark, it's only there to love not steal the night, Everyone wants to be the sun to brighten someone's life, but why not be the moon, to shine on someone's darkest of hours?? Love them for darkest of times, because that's what they need most??

Heart Cast Away

Heart Cast Away
The heart, once cast away, is left to wander in the vast expanse of time, searching for solace in memories that now seem distant and surreal.
It's profound journey of healing, filling with moments of heartache and longing. Yet, through it all, the heart remains resilient, slowly finding its way back home. In the midst of pain, there is always hope, and eventually, the heart will come to rest amidst familiar comforts, ready to begin again.

Passage Of Time

Passage of Time
Time, that unforgiving mistress, whisks us away like autumn leaves on a gusty day, scattering our lives like petals in the wind. She wraps her bony fingers around our hearts, squeezing tight until we gasp for breath, reminding us of our mortality, our fragility. Yet, within her embrace, we find a strange comfort, a sense of belonging to something greater than ourselves. We realize that our fleeting moments are part of a grand tapestry, woven from threads of time past, present, and future. Time is a thief, stealing away our youth, our vitality, our dreams. Yet, she also gives, bestowing wisdom, exsperience, and the gift of looking back on a life well-lived. As the clock ticks onward, marking each passing second, we hold onto what matters most- the love the laughter, the moments that brought joy to our hearts and filled our days with meaning..?

Heart of Steal

Heart of Steal
With a heart as strong as steel, heart always searching the cosmos for love? The man of steel stands tall and proud, his eyes locked on the horizon, forever reaching for the stars above. With his heat vision burning bright, he shields the city from harm, his heart aflame with a love that cannot be tamed. He saves lives with ease, but can't save himself from firestorm of emotions that rages within. Her touch brings him peace, quenching the flames that threaten to consume him whole. And so, her love poves that in the universe of the heart, even in the mightiest of forces bow before the gentle sway of true affection. Together, they dance upon the skyline, a duet of destiny, where love is the ultimate superpower..
