I wear no shame, though grief is mine,
It shapes my soul, its aching shrine.
I do not weep for what is gone,
But for the silence, now withdrawn.
For his absence carves a sacred space,
A quiet, hallowed, timeless grace.
No blame, no anger, no regret,
But a love unspoken, quietly met.”
The dawn crept in with gentle light,
Its golden hues dispelling night.
And though her sorrow did not fade,
Her spirit stood, unbent, unfrayed.
For honour lies in bearing pain,
With dignity that does not wane.
And through her tears, the world could see,
The strength of her eternity.
YOU CAME TO ME IN THE DAWN
“Dreams speak the language of the soul, and sometimes, their voices call us to truths we dare not face…”
You came to me in the dawn of light,
A phantom, weaving through the night.
A tender fire, a fleeting flame,
I wished to hold you, call your name.
Yet you, an ember, distant, dim,
Slipped through the folds of my fragile whim.
In the haze of sleep, your visage stayed,
A bittersweet ghost, a love betrayed.
If only, I thought, your heart were real,
If only you knew the depth I feel.
Yet dreams, deceitful, weave their guise,
And I awake to an empty sky.
Find me not in fleeting thought,
But in the truths your heart has sought.
Find me where the light does break,
Where sorrow bends but does not quake.
Find me, though shadows cloud the way,
And cradle me through night to day.
Find me, and I shall find you too,
Forever bound, our love renewed.
WHAT IS FREEDOM?
“Freedom is not a gift bestowed by the world; it is the courage to seek truth when all else is veiled.”
What is freedom in eternal night?
A steady step amidst the blight.
A steadfast heart that dares to see,
The vast expanse of destiny.
To hold the love of those who care,
And, in return, to bravely share.
To cherish self, to stand alone,
To weave your dreams into the known.
Freedom breathes where truth is found,
Amidst the silence, its call resounds.
