Soulmates

شقایق - سیاوش کسرایی Shaghayegh

شقایق - سیاوش کسرایی

Life's heavy hammer, coming down once more,
Relentless is the claim, knocking at my core.
The storm of suffering, it never finds release,
Yet in the heart of darkness, I find my inner peace.

Courage sparks a flame,
Daring to play the game.

Navigating trials, rich experiences unfold,
Create! the heart whispers, in whispers bold.
Guided by its beats, I’ll follow every sound,
In the cyclical rhythm, my purpose is profound.

I accept the fall,
This dance is my call.

Embrace the ebb and flow, turn struggle into grace,
This journey that I travel, it's my heart's own space.
With each hammer's descent, I rise and redefine,
In the flames of existence, I find my own design.

Life's cyclical beauty, I choose to embrace,
With every breath I take, I carve my rightful place.

Dance with Existence

We’ve crossed a thousand miles of sky and storm,
With every mile, our hearts were warm.
From dusty roads to mountain bends,
I knew our story had no end.

We laughed through silence, healed with touch,
Even when the world asked too much.
The dips we missed, the dreams we chase—
You stayed, and so did I, through every place.

You are my love, you are my flame,
My compass when I can’t explain.
From building homes to decks in the rain,
We lost the fire, but not the flame.
You're my family, my wild, my art—
The rhythm of my beating heart.

I read your vibes like morning light,
You shine with more than perfect sight.
In every smile and word you say,
I feel your love light up my day.

We created love in times apart,
Stitched together piece by heart.
Soul mates dancing, come what may,
Even heartbreak couldn’t sway.

You are my love, you are my flame,
My compass when I can’t explain.
From building homes to decks in the rain,
We lost the fire, but not the flame.
You're my family, my wild, my art—
The rhythm of my beating heart.

So here's to us, to skies we’ve spun,
To every moon and rising sun.
Through all of life’s unraveling plan,
I still see us—I always can.
I love you, my heart…
Shannon—you're my Shanshine

My Shanshine


I arrived, but far from what I dreamed,
The road I walked split at the seams.
I’m still, but thoughts keep drifting on—
Life and truth don’t get along.

The beauty I believed in fades,
We trade our hearts for darker games.
Betray the kids, betray the soul—
For power's fire and bitter gold.

But I’m here anyway,
With a dream I won’t betray.
Though the peace is hard to hold,
I keep walking through the cold.
Love this life, curse it too—
Find some grace in what is true.
I’m not done, I’m not afraid—
I’m here anyway.

We are too many, maybe too blind,
Fighting for what leaves us behind.
I wanna thrive outside the war,
In love, in peace, in something more.

Yeah, I’m here anyway,
With a dream I won’t betray.
Though the peace is hard to hold,
I keep walking through the cold.
Love this life, curse it too—
Find some grace in what is true.
I’m not done, I’m not afraid—
I’m here anyway.

Limited life, limited time—
But still I trust this path is mine.
The dream may change, the stars may fall,
I’ll rise again and take it all.

So I’m here anyway,
With my soul and what I say.
Every breath, a kind of grace—
In this strange and sacred place.
Love this life, curse it too—
But I’m still showing up for you.
I’m not done, I’m here to stay—
I’m here anyway.
