Forever Here:
In the hush between each heartbeat’s call,
Where shadows lean and starlights fall,
There blooms a truth both soft and clear:
Though all things fade, I’m forever here.
Not in the grasp of reaching hands,
Nor footprints left in fleeting sands,
But in the light that never dies,
In winds that carry whispered skies.
I live within the silent pause,
Between the breaths, the quiet cause
Of why you look and feel me near—
Unseen, unfelt, yet ever here.
When petals fall from springtime’s grace,
When frost draws lace on window’s face,
In every turn the seasons steer,
There lies my soul, forever here.
In rooms where once my voice would sing,
Now only echoes softly cling.
Yet even silence, bold and sheer,
Can’t hide my touch—I'm still right here.
I’m in the rain that taps the glass,
In golden hours that gently pass,
In dreams that come without a fear,
You’ll feel me close—forever here.
When candles flicker low at night,
And shadows shift in pale moonlight,
Remember not what disappears,
But what remains: I’m always here.
Not every love must have a face,
Not every bond exists in place.
We stretch beyond the yesteryear,
In something vast—forever here.
Though time may wear your memory thin,
Though newer joys and days begin,
Within your laughter, love, and tears,
I softly echo: I’m still here.
I’m not a ghost that haunts your days,
But part of all your subtle ways.
In how you care, and persevere,
You hold my spirit—forever here.
Each step you take, I walk beside.
Though miles may stretch and worlds divide,
The love we built will not disappear;
It roots you deep—I’m always here.
If grief should come and press too long,
If sorrow drains your light and song,
Just lift your gaze, let go the fear,
And feel me near—forever here.
I’m not a flicker lost in flame,
Nor just a thought you cannot name.
I’m carved in you, both bright and clear,
A steady voice: I’m forever here.
In books we shared and notes you find,
In sudden songs that cross your mind,
In all you are and hold most dear—
Know this, my love: I’m always here.
And when you speak into the air,
When no one else is standing there,
I’ll hear each word, I’ll draw you near,
Responding soft: I’m still right here.
For love does not obey goodbyes,
It doesn’t break when someone dies.
It grows beyond, through every year—
Alive in you, forever here.
So do not mourn the space I fill,
My heart beats in your silence still.
The bond we had remains sincere,
Unseen—but strong, and ever here.
And if the stars begin to weep,
If all the world should fall asleep,
You’ll find my soul in skies sincere,
A quiet spark—forever here.
