• (Poem) Tell me you Love me…

  

  Tell me you love me, 
  So my heart may understand, 
  For words alone can’t capture 
  The touch of your hand. 
  
  Tell me you love me, 
  In whispers soft and true, 
  Let your voice be the melody 
  That echoes all through. 
  
  Tell me you love me, 
  And let the world stand still, 
  For in those simple syllables, 
  Time bends to your will. 
  
  Tell me you love me, 
  And paint the sky so wide, 
  With colors of your kindness 
  That no storm can divide. 
  
  Tell me you love me, 
  Not just in a fleeting glance, 
  But in the quiet moments, 
  Where hearts dare to dance. 
  
  Tell me you love me, 
  And let the truth unfold, 
  A bond built on whispers, 
  More precious than gold. 
  
  Tell me you love me, 
  So my heart may finally see, 
  That love isn’t a question, 
  But a feeling that sets me free.

• The Stone in my Pocket

  

  I carry a stone in my pocket, smooth and cold, 
  a weight that presses, a grief untold. 
  It was smaller once, a pebble, a shard, 
  but time does not lighten what’s heavy at heart. 
  
  I turn it over in my trembling hand, 
  trace the edges, try to understand. 
  Some days it’s quiet, a whisper, a sigh, 
  other days it sharpens, a tear in my eye. 
  
  It warms in my palm when I speak your name, 
  as if it remembers before the pain. 
  Yet no matter how tightly I hold or let go, 
  the stone remains—steady, slow. 
  
  I’ve learned to carry it, not as a chain, 
  but as a relic of love, as proof of the rain. 
  Grief is a stone that never quite leaves, 
  but in time, you learn how to breathe. 
  
  So I keep it with me, in pocket, in hand, 
  not as a burden—but as a stand. 
  For love does not vanish, nor fade, nor stray, 
  it stays like a stone—just changed by the day.

• Arise

  

  Arise as the sun, and shine like morning dew,
  A quiet brilliance, fresh and true.
  Stretch toward the day with unyielding grace,
  For every dawn is a sacred space.
  
  Whisper your dreams to the waking sky,
  Let clouds carry them where eagles fly.
  Root yourself deep, yet dare to ascend,
  The horizon calls—your journey won’t end.
  
  Be bold like the breeze, unbound, alive,
  A force of nature, destined to thrive.
  In every shadow, let your light break through—
  Arise as the sun, and shine like morning dew.
