Outgrown Definitions
Some things learned as a child stay with us long after childhood ends. A saying about questioning the definitions we carry into adulthood and whether they still make sense.

A Home for My Soul
He arrived lost, certain love wasn’t for him, until fate treated him like a child finally handed the parents he’d been searching for all along.
Potpourri of Love
Her kiss lingers the way fragrance lingers in a room long after the flowers are gone, quietly filling every corner of the house of his heart.
Before We Speak
I may hear the words yet miss what someone is trying to tell me. A saying about the moment listening becomes more important than waiting for my turn to speak.
Consumed
At breakfast, lunch, and dinner, she is somehow still there, uninvited and inescapable, filling every quiet space his mind tries to keep to itself.
Made Me a Believer
He never believed love was real until she rewrote the story, turning a fairytale he’d dismissed his whole life into the one he now tells.
What Lifts Us
When darkness closes in, strength does not have to look heroic. Sometimes it is simply the thing we hold onto long enough to rise toward the light.
A Wordless Truth
A single held look, and something silent passed between them, true enough to stop time and leave two strangers changed before either said a word.
Defying the Dark
Darkness falls, and still her smile stays lit behind his eyes, the last thing he sees before sleep finds him and the only thing sleep can’t take.
One and the Same
A kiss becomes the moment two people stop feeling like two, quietly dissolving into one, surreal enough that he forgets where he ends and she begins.
