I LOVED A RUIN

-




I loved a ruin,
A broken heart I thought I could mend,
An abyss I threw myself into,
Thinking I’d find shelter there.

I loved a mirage,
A love that only existed through me,
A fire I kept feeding
While you looked the other way.

I dug graves for our promises,
I prayed for a "we"
In a language you no longer spoke.
And yet, I still believe.

Because love is that, isn’t it?
A knife we hold against our own skin,
Hoping it will spare us in the end.

YOU FLOW THROUGH ME

-

  You flow through me like a river of fire, Burning and untamed, Devastating everything in your path Without ever fading. I loved you beyond words, Beyond time, Beyond what my body could hold Without breaking. You are the imprint on my skin, The echo of a kiss no one else can erase, The absence screaming in my veins, A longing that has taken human form. And even if the world were to collapse, If our souls were to be lost, Know this: I will love you always, In this life and in all the ones to come.

WE ARE INFINITE

  We are infinite In the blink of an eye, Eternity suspended Between a kiss and a sigh. We are the cry The universe forgot to silence, Two souls bound By an invisible, unbreakable thread. If I had to be reborn a thousand times, It would still be in your arms, Because love is not a choice, It is an inevitability.

Love, That Fire That Consumes

-

Love is an ember. It begins with a spark, fragile and timid, dancing in the breeze of our desires. Then it ignites, it burns, it consumes. It warms our souls and lights up our nights, but it can also reduce us to ashes. To love is to walk barefoot on a tightrope stretched between the sky and the abyss. It’s savoring the sweetness of a kiss knowing it could be the last. It’s writing promises on the skin of the beloved, hoping they never fade. But one day, the flame weakens. The other drifts away, or perhaps it is fate that blows too hard. Then, all that remains is the smoke of memories, clinging to our skin like a scent that refuses to extinguish. We become the ashes of a past love, scattered by the wind of regret. And yet, despite the burns, despite the scars, we always reach out toward the fire. Because love, even when it hurts, remains the most beautiful of all fires.
