when dusk meets dawn

I was the shadow, and she was the light
I was nothing without her and everything with her
Where there is light, there is shadow,
where there is no light, there is no shadow.

When she was there, the best parts in me came out,
parts I never knew existed,
like petals unfolding in the dawn.
The light I never knew I needed so badly
It's like oxygen I breathe in it, I breathed in her scent.

And suddenly, the light was gone,
losing myself in the void,
a shadow fading into the dark,
leaving nothing but an echo in its wake,
never to be found again.

Details | The Quill Poem

The keeper of secrets

The leaves are falling, murmuring truths to the wind 
Creating a song of old whispers nestled in the fallen leaves 
The wind, the keeper of secrets
Haunts the wanderers—me,
Tracing the silent path to change
Each turn of color an echo  of what once was 
 
  And so, the leaves fall,
crushed under the weight of each passing step,
only to rise again,
as the seasons shift in an endless rhythm,
teaching me that change is woven
into each breath I take

  Reminding me of faded memories,
That bloom like wildflowers between the cracks of now,
Bringing sweetness and sting in their scent,
They linger, weaving through the keeper of secrets,
Offering me hope of renewal in the amidst of change
