The valley

I wake up in a valley
Pieces of a heart scattered all around me
Walk around, pick the pieces up and try to glue them back together
Then I see her, her light beckons to me
And I'm pulled in like a moth to a flame
She holds my hand and leads me up a mountain.... Feels a bit familiar
But the euphoria I feel when she's around dumbs all my logic
I forget where I started from... I don't even care to know why I was there
Up the mountain we go... Her gentle smile and alluring perfume promise a rest from the pain
Closer we get to the top and then she lets go of my hand... I scramble to catch up to her
She giggles at my puny attempts
But I know no way down
So onwards I go... Though I'm getting the dreadful feeling that I've been here before
I reach the top... And there she is in all her elegance
My logic screams at me not to go closer
But I've lost all sense of reason... So closer I go
I reach for her hand but she pulls away... Tells me to close my eyes and I do so... I wait in silence as I hear her feet come closer
And then comes the rush of wind....
Now I know why I was in the valley

My first attempt at a love letter

I remember telling you the day we sat down on those cold tiles that you were the silver lining to my cloudy days. So today, I'm writing to you, my silver lining. I've wanted to write one of these to you for a long time. I told myself, though, that the timing was never perfect. I'll be happy to put pen to paper and express what a joy your presence has been for me, even if you never read this. If I were required to give explanations for my feelings toward you, I would have a long list that would continue to get longer over time. The one that would top them all, though, is just this: It's because of you that I was able to be the person I wanted to be. It was dark here until you brought light. Since that initial afternoon, there have been several incidents that have felt like a roller coaster. Nevertheless, despite the ups and downs, apologies and quiet. I now have a better understanding of what it means to be human. And even if this never happens. I'll be happy to h...

Day 2

Hello my Hope, Today I came up with a wonderful analogy for human hearts, even though it does sound a bit far fetched. I think that they are like glass sculptures, beautiful to behold and a marvel to look at. In the light, the shine with a million colors and reflect it as it falls upon them. They mesmerize and dazzle , they sparkle and gleam like nothing you have ever seen. This gives me the thought that with the right environment, ones heart can truly shine and light up the worlds of others. And I am a living testament to that, at least I think I once was. But back to my point, no matter how dark it might seem, if you shine just the right amount of light, warmth and love on it at just the right spot, little by little it will begin to shine. And even though the process might take a little while. If you don’t give up, the results will completely be worth the wait. Now you might not entirely agree with what I'm saying, in fact I don’t want you to, because that is a very naïve way of ...

Flutter by

She hides her smile, like a treasure, it must be found, but if it means that I have to swim through the darkest days, and dig through pieces of a broken heart, I will gladly do so, if only to see it once more, and feel them again, The Butterflies, As her smile makes all my troubles flutter by.
