Questions of strength
What is strength, I ponder, as shadows start to fall, Is it the might of muscle, or the courage in the small? Is it loud, a fierce eruption, like thunder's rolling sound, Or is it quiet resolve, where gentleness is found? Is strength the steel of battle, forged in fire and pain, Or tender hands that comfort, shared laughter in the rain? Does it roar like wild oceans, crashing against the shore, Or whisper in the stillness, asking for nothing more? Is strength a warrior's heartbeat, drumming fast and proud? Or the peace that walks beside us, beneath the softest cloud? Can it break through the silence, shatter chains of despair, Or build bridges of compassion, showing how much we care? Is it standing tall and fearless, facing fears head-on, Or the wisdom to surrender, when the battle's nearly won? Can strength be found in laughter, in tears that freely flow, In the moments we are vulnerable, in the warmth of letting go? What defines the heart's true armor, in a world so vast and wide? Is it forging on through hardship, or knowing when to bide? In this dance of life’s questions, I search for what is right: To understand the many facets of strength's illuminating light. So I ask, in quiet reverence, as the day breaks into night, Is strength found in resilience, or in the joy of the flight? In the seeking and the striving, what truths will I uncover, That strength is in the balance, as we learn to love each other?

Is it real?
🌹 A relationship, they ask. But how can you define a connection stretched thin across oceans, woven with time zones that whisper, "Not yet," "Soon," "Tomorrow." The sun greets you as I sleep, and when the moon watches over me, you are already chasing another day. Our voices meet in fleeting... read more

Whispers of the warrior
In the shadows of my youth, a warrior's path I tread, With fists like thunder, and a heart of iron shed.

Will someone notice?
🌹 I fake a laugh, hiding the weight of sadness that clings to my chest. I fake being okay, shielding my sorrow from eyes that might see too much. I fake strength, concealing the fear of a lonely tomorrow that whispers in the dark. Will someone notice? Will someone listen? Will someone look... read more

Why I'm Scared to Ask You This
🌹 I hold my breath, the weight of words unspoken presses heavy on my chest. The silence between us feels like an answer I’m too afraid to hear.

I found an old box of stuff. It was like a time capsule of who I was. Choices and decisions. Attempts to find myself through clothing and jewelry. My interest and gifts. I wonder if this is proof I could have been someone else. Or is it proof I was never anyone else? Was I destined to be who I've... read more

🌹 Have you ever wanted to run, to vanish beyond familiar streets, to shed the weight of known faces, and step into a place where no one calls your name?

Why Did You Choose to Cheat?
🌹 Was I just a fleeting thought, a bookmark in your unfinished story? Did my love not anchor you enough, or was it too heavy to bear? I gave you all the pieces I had, fragile, trembling, yet whole.

🌹 The sun rises for me as it sets for you, casting long shadows in worlds we can't share. You close your eyes to the day I open mine, a cycle that keeps us near, yet worlds apart.

Yesterday's World
🌹 You wear yesterday’s world like a second skin, I, with tomorrow’s glimmer in my eyes, wonder if we are but shadows cast in opposite light, trying to touch what lies beyond our time. Yet, under the same sun, the shadows linger, whispering the secrets of lives we could share. #poem #love... read more

Likes and Lies
🌹 A heart, a thumbs-up, blue and bold— It’s easy warmth, or so I’m told. But under screens, in hidden light, Do they know me or just the sight? A thousand likes don’t fill the space Of longing for a deeper grace, So here I ask, in silent scrolls, Am I just parts, or am I whole? #poem #love... read more

Strength in Silence
🌹 You don’t see the strength within until there’s no road but forward. When light fades and shadows stretch, your will becomes a quiet flame. It’s not in loud, proud words or fists, but in the steps you take each day. Strength you never knew you held, revealed by what you must endure. #poem... read more
