I leave with grace
In shadows cast by fading light, I leave with grace, a silent flight. Through whispered winds and quiet steps, I bid farewell with no regrets. In every moment, memories bloom, Like flowers fading in the gloom. Yet, in my heart, a gentle pace, As I depart with tranquil grace. The echoes of laughter, tears, and sighs, Fade softly as the evening dies. With gratitude for what has been, I embrace the journey, unforeseen. With every step, a chapter ends, Yet new beginnings lie 'round bends. In the dance of life, I find my place, Leaving behind with utmost grace.

Every day I dread the music Coming from the depths of my Lazy soul. Sorrows drown out Internal thoughts of possible restoration.

In the textile of life, love’s threads do weave, Two kinds of love, both beautiful and naïve. The love of family, steadfast and strong,

A Flicker of Belief
In the vast expanse of time, where stars are born and die, There lies a truth profound, whispered 'neath the azure sky. No matter how hard life may hit, its storms, its endless churn,
