❝ because my mouth surrendered and now it's my heart whispering ❞
~as feelings never stay in equilibrium, some grow and some descend,
but some ascend, up and above into the clouds- ascending syllables~
cherry blossoms float away into the spring light, warm as the glow of dawn, along with the gentle breeze as pink as they are - how light, how free—
passing by the streams of that fading sunlight
once again, i'm reverted back to past memories with you, that day we were together, i felt as though it was only us at this exact same place. with cherry blossoms floating away into the pastel pink sky and as you gazed at that splendor, i just sat there watching you
because you were even more beautiful than those cherry blossoms
and i remembered tragic, lifeless eyes; eyes that held more than you would ever express. but i'm thankful for the bright eyes and wide smiles only when with you; of the fluttering of heart just by looking at you, the countless sacrifices you made
you held yourself back for others
it was never about you; you taught me so much, how unselfish your heart was, filled with complete and utter compassion— so i tried to repay you with the same amount of kindness
except i never could compare to all you did
can i look right into your eyes again and see how they lit up when they collided with mine? i miss your small shy smile that matched mine—
so pure and ethereal;
eyes that curved so beautifully as the shape of the moon, you glowed more radiantly than the morning sun, i'll always be looking at you, focused on you only
