I Blame My Heart
I blame myself for loving you,
For hiding all I felt so true.
You lit my heart, my every vein
But where to go with all this pain?
I’m torn between two hearts I know,
One holds me back, one lets me go.
So tell me now, which path to take?
And how to mend a heart that breaks?
For years, my soul has walked with yours,
Yet never knocked on open doors.
I bled in silence, smiled through scars,
And loved you more than all the stars.
But silent love is sharp and deep,
It steals my breath, it haunts my sleep.
No blame can soothe, no words explain
So where to go with all this strain?
You fade each day and leave me still,
I chase you through each dream I fill.
I live a life inside my mind,
Where love is real, though undefined.
And so I stay, and so I write,
Of love that lost its way to light.
I blame myself for loving you
For all these years. And still I do.

A Bloom in My Heart
A bloom has risen within my chest, It blossomed despite my silence and unrest. Like a promise whispered from afar, Perfuming time like a falling star. I was nothing but a fugitive of yearning, My sails pulled by winds ever turning. Yet you arrived, a hidden light, Undressing the dark, revealing the night. You flowed into my dream like rain, Quenching my thirst, easing the pain. I whispered, “Welcome, love once lost,” Returned without a reason, without a cost. Come back to where our hearts once stayed, To the soul that wept, the hope that swayed. I searched for you in every beat, You live in me — in silence, sweet. Come back; there’s no escape in flight, No cure in sips that bloom in blight. The flowers drank from tears once shed, In a time inked by what wasn’t said. And when my heart felt your faint glow, It danced again, let longing flow. It cried, “If only I had been The hand that caught you, not what’s been.” You came like magic, soft and wide, A blaze that rose with gentle stride. I'm the tired soul adrift and bare, Who lost your trail in empty air. I etched your name in every wall, And drew your ghost where ashes fall. Will you return to my fading flame? To save this world from sounding the same? I love you — has a poet said These words and not been left unread? I love you — read them in my eyes, Where silence sleeps, and longing lies. I'm sleepless, waiting for your breath, I even miss your silent wrath. Let me see you — even in dream, Where memory lives, and shadows gleam. Let me melt in a fleeting trace, As if your smile could time replace. My silence grows — my hands now sing, With sorrow's voice... without a string. Return, and maybe time will mend, And life will bloom where it did end.

Standing While Falling
Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."
