I’m bringing my lifelong love of writing together with my love of music. Lyrics and musical direction is mine and beautifully delivered by AI. In time, I’ll cut these with my own vocals. Today, it’s about bringing words to life and growing in the process.

He’s the storm that stills the restless sea
A constellation pulsing in the deep
He walks like the earth should thank his feet
No pedestal claimed, no promises to keep

I watered my garden with my own blood
With hands that forgot how to receive
I gave away my name, one syllable at a time
Losing pieces I didn’t know I’d grieve

He’s lost and sewn his skin with steel
His shoulders shaped to carry exile
Among billions, just ink on a page
But fate lit the fuse with a reckoning smile

Loss after loss but never say never
Finally found shelter, rising together

He’s the wind that sweeps my ship to safety
He’s the wildfire the rain condones
He’s the cursive script in fresh ink
He’s the light crawling into my bones
He’s my prayer unasked but still answered
He’s the muse to my deepest prose
He’s the unknown words I speak fluently
He’s the love I wish I had known

He speaks in pauses louder than sound
With silence that softens the night
His gaze like a mirror I never outrun
Reflecting what I hide from the light

He doesn’t ask me to shrink or to bloom
Just hands me the sky and stays near
And in him I found what I dared not need 
Not safety, but the end of fear

Loss after loss but never say never
Finally found shelter, rising together

He’s the wind that sweeps my ship to safety
He’s the wildfire the rain condones
He’s the cursive script in fresh ink
He’s the light crawling into my bones
He’s my prayer unasked but still answered
He’s the muse to my deepest prose
He’s the unknown words I speak fluently
He’s the love I wish I had known

I rest all my weight on the impossible
And find it holds steady and true
For all I’ve endured, I now understand
I’ve been moved, because I met you

He’s the wind that sweeps my ship to safety
He’s the wildfire the rain condones
He’s the cursive script in fresh ink
He’s the light crawling into my bones
He’s my prayer unasked but still answered
He’s the muse to my deepest prose
He’s the unknown words I speak fluently
He’s the love I wish I had known

He’s the pull in the tide when I’m drifting
He’s the echo that brings me home
He’s the breath that steadies my chaos
He’s the truth when the world has gone cold
He’s the pulse in a poem still forming
He’s the heat in the marrow of stone
He’s the “yes” in a life full of silence
He’s the love I now claim as my own

We know better than to test what future holds
We know to never say never
My mind trembles to grieve you while we’re living
But nothing - nothing - lasts forever

The Love I Wish I Had Known

At eight I carved a hidden path
In graphite shadow script
Grew fluent in volatility
So I let silence slip

I prayed to God and sharpened lead
The lonely’s truest friends
Built castles only I could reach
No need for them to mend

The page became my secret flame
Where ghosts could speak their part
While louder voices turned me stone
Ink held my beating heart

So don’t ask why I disappear
Or why my voice won’t rise
I stitched my truth in starlight thread
Beneath a thousand eyes
I’m an unknowable fortress door
Don’t ask me for the key
I whispered every answer once
You never looked at me

The mirror cracked beneath their praise
Their love wore mirrored masks
I learned to dance on fault lines
And smile when silence asked

I buried language in the roots
Of trees that learned to sway
And found my breath in metaphors
That never looked away

I loathe the hours spent with those
Who tried to dim my flame
But paper lets me burn aloud
And never speaks my shame

So don’t ask why I disappear
Or why my voice won’t rise
I stitched my truth in starlight thread
Beneath a thousand eyes
I’m an unknowable fortress door
Don’t ask me for the key
I whispered every answer once
You never looked at me

Sticks and stones have bruised and bled
But words have made me stay
Retreat is not surrender
It’s just the wiser way
I spill my joy, my grief, my fire
On every fearless page
To map the cost of being whole
As woman, self, and sage

So don’t ask why I howl at night
And tend to hidden scars
I raised a self in shadow light
That danced beneath the stars
These words are where I plant my flag
Beyond your reach or fence
I won’t explain the cost again
I offer no defence

So don’t ask why I disappear
Or why I still fall quiet
I stitched my truth in starlight thread
Not born for your disquiet
I’m an unknowable fortress door
Don’t ask me for the key
I wrote it down so loud, so clear
You just refused to see

If it’s too much, then turn away
I’m done with earning depth
These words are mine, they hold my name
They’re all that I have left

Men drift these days, chasing that soft-life dream
No vows, no roots, just a highlight reel scene
I respect the game; it hits for a while,
But fear creeps in when they’re old without a dial
I’ve stood in the court of self-crowned kings,
Little boys in gold with puppet strings
He chased, he praised me when I didn’t flinch,
But love turned ghost when I moved an inch.

So it ended - he launched my heart like a dart,
Left me standing there, fooled from the start
But they always return, they knock on my door
I mapped that labyrinth, don’t live there anymore.

Don’t bring me sorrow or dress it in grace,
You miss the idea, not the look on my face
Cursed is the heart that gambled and stalled,
I’ve stopped asking mercy let the curtains fall.
I read every sign, tried to decode your tone,
But you’re just bored and scared to be alone.
I’m chasing joy now, I’ve seen what’s now there.
You picked your silence, your throne’s just a chair.

He’ll say I went quiet, pulled back way too fast
But I just stopped dancing when his music passed.
I took off my heels so he could feel tall,
Learned to nod sweet while I braced for the fall.
He called it confusion, blamed timing and fear,
But clarity hits different when the end is near.
He wanted devotion without any dues,
But love isn’t magic when it’s built on excuse.

Don’t bring me sorrow or dress it in grace,
You miss the idea, not the look on my face.
Cursed is the heart that gambled and stalled,
I’ve stopped asking mercy let the curtains fall.
I read every sign, tried to decode your tone,
But you’re just bored and scared to be alone.
I’m chasing joy now, I’ve seen what’s now there.
You picked your silence, your throne’s just a chair.

I won’t be the chorus to your boring old song,
Or offer loving hands when you play it all wrong
I gave you a mirror, you turned off the light
I’ve moved on to better and I’m so warm at night.

Don’t bring me sorrow or dress it in grace,
You miss the idea, not the look on my face.
Cursed is the heart that gambled and stalled
I’ve stopped asking mercy let the curtains fall.
I read every sign, tried to decode your tone,
But you’re just bored and scared to be alone
I’m chasing joy now, I’ve seen what’s now there.
You picked your silence, your throne’s just a chair.

You want back the girl who still held her breath,
Who waited on promises you tangled in mess.
But I’ve packed up my softness, stitched up the seams,
I’m not a fresh starlet for your half-finished dreams.
Call it regret, but it walks like control
You want a warm pulse, not the weight of my soul.
I’m out of the loop and out of your reach,
You only remember me now when I’m out of speech.

I used to write poetry that you never would read,
Now I write exits, they cut as they bleed
I’m not who I was when I clung to the thread
I’m done with your voice in the back of my head.

Your Throne’s Just A Chair

I can’t make it better
I can’t undig the grave
I can’t swallow your grief whole
And recover some better days
I can’t evolve what is past
That bell won’t be unrung
But I can hold you close
Inhale with all of my strength
And merge our hearts into one

What is the harbour without the sea
What is a tree without roots
What is it to be the love of your life
If not someone resolute

Because you’re a part of me now
My love, my life, my joy
My confidante and protector
And with all I am I’ll employ
Strength beyond what’s imagined
Let fall every solemn tear
To be the woman you need today
And for all our living years

These coming months will test you
They’ll ask more than you can give
They’ll invoke your fury in your grief
A shadow on the life you now live
But I don’t fear darkness not a bit
Because I am your shimmering light
I will walk where demons tread
I’ll never let you from my sight

What is the lighthouse without pitch of night
Or the rose adorned without thorns
What is the point of being your fire
If I’m crestfallen and worn

Because you’re a part of me now
My love, my life, my joy
My confidante and protector
And with all I am I’ll employ
Strength beyond what’s imagined
Let fall every solemn tear
To be the woman you need today
And for all our living years

I won’t let you stumble
I won’t let you break
I won’t let this living hell
Cost more than it already takes
I’ll carry this weight as much as I can
It’s never too much or enough
I’ll guard the light that lives in you
When going gets too tough

Because you’re a part of me now
No matter how the days unfold
I’ll be the ground you build upon
Your foundation firm and bold
So let your grief rise like a wave
I won’t flinch or disappear
Still the woman you need today
Still yours across the years

Because you’re a part of me now
My love, my life, my joy
My confidante and protector
And with all I am I’ll employ
Strength beyond what’s imagined
Let fall every solemn tear
To be the woman you need today
And for all our living years

So rest your weight on my chest
Let it press down so heavy
If you need love I have more to spare
And it’s there whenever you’re ready

Lighthouse

The road is marked metaphor
The place of the journey 
Footsteps mark stories
The rhythm of adversity
Then there is you and what you’ve become
Blossoming the more you are weathered
We are so alike my love it’s you and I
Two rebels voluntarily tethered

It doesn’t matter what they say
Let their wild schemes asunder 
The road winds at the end of the day
Trading one plot for another

The road rolls forward
The road won’t relent
The road is the path
The road is the expense
It leads us to light
It leads us to shade
And if it’s you and I
It’s fine either way

We’ve taken on water
We’ve battled those tides
There’s more hell to come
Let the pressure rise
We’ve revelled in the joy
We’ve laid out the pain
Tomorrow will be no different
We’re used to the game 

It doesn’t matter what happens
Let the road turn so wildly  
Let our cages rattle
Let the tears fall mildly

The road rolls forward
The road won’t relent
The road is the path
The road is the expense
It leads us to light
It leads us to shade
And if it’s you and I
It’s fine either way

I think you know this
A blessing so incredible 
Im tempted to deny it
But we are the inevitable
Consequence of freedom
The aged and fine wine
The benefit of experience
The lessons of time

The road leads to victory
Embattled by defeat
The road is the path
We still do not speak
The road is sacrifice
It reveals us this truth
That we journey this together 
And its meant for me and you

The road rolls forward
The road won’t relent
The road is the path
The road is the expense
It leads us to light
It leads us to shade
And if it’s you and I
It’s fine either way

The road is the past
What can’t be undone 
The road is the present
Days rolled into one
The road is the choice
We think is our own
The road is the conquest
Of life still unknown

Walk, run or flee
Cry, beg or claim
Hold, beat and scorn
Crush and then maim
Feel, breathe, exhale
See and proclaim
The road is the road
The outcome’s the same

The Road

Sounds past my lips
Whispers to the void
Sighs in resignation
It is just pointless noise
I can’t move on forward
Can’t turn back the wheels of time
Can’t hum to what is present
What I want is never mine

I’m starting to get it now 
It’s cruel and perfect sense
In pursuit of everything I want
I end up deserving less

It’s just not meant to be
I don’t make the rules
I’m not blessed by the augers
Fate is twisted and cruel
Some people strike gold in chance
Some people aren’t trying at all
But that’s not your story love
You’re for the toil and fall

I really feel like giving up
I really wish I could
But I’ve placed myself into a bind
Tied those knots too good
I live under the weight of shame
Stupid to shoot my shot
I wish I knew it was never meant for me
I’d have let those dreams rot

I’m starting to get it now 
It’s cruel and perfect sense
In pursuit of everything I want
I end up deserving less

It’s just not meant to be
I don’t make the rules
I’m not blessed by the augers
Fate is twisted and cruel
Some people strike gold in chance
Some people aren’t trying at all
But that’s not your story love
You’re for the toil and fall

I can’t quit
I can’t yield
I can’t breathe
I can’t be real
I can’t be happy
I can’t be enough
I can’t be a person
I can’t have that luck

It’s just not meant to be
It was never meant for you 
It doesn’t matter what you give
It never comes back to you 
Because you weren’t made for it
You’re a lived cautionary tale
Sorry no one told you
You were born to fail

I don’t make the rules
I’m not blessed by the augers
Fate is twisted and cruel
Some people strike gold in chance
Some people aren’t trying at all
But that’s not your story love
You’re for the toil and fall

So im just going to stay here
I’m not even going to try
I’m not meant for the brighter things
I’m born to just survive
