LITTORAL
— where light learns release

I #unfurl phosphorescence, discard gravitas, discover horizons rehearsing absolution beside moonlit water tonight and silence

SHARDS
— where light refuses to quit

Night swept the room; …splintered glass lead to broken dreams… yet I pocketed starlight, stitched hope into silence, and walked barefoot through dawn, carrying names the dark couldn’t erase

RADIANCE
— what the roses kept when she left

Some departures return as light. This poem listens for what lingers after the room empties.

PETALLED REVERIE
— when becoming feels like prayer

I #blossom beneath closed eyes, learning softness, survival, patience and courage in luminous silence slowly.

ARCHIVE OF DUSKS
— a violin tuned to grief

I’ve cried so many sunsets…
that evening now arrives rehearsed,
burning gently, like music played
by a woman who learned sorrow before sound.

#24hrbybt @poetrysupportbybt

She carries no weapon, only inheritance—
grace sharpened by survival, silence fluent in flame.

Tonight, even the moon learns restraint
watching her choose direction over destiny.

THE ONE I LEFT — on returning to myself

We do not always heal by changing.
Sometimes we heal by returning
to the part of us we left behind
to survive.

NOCTURNE ARCHIVE
—what wings remember when voices fail
#poetrysupportbybt ✍️ #24hrbybt

I became a #nightbird—
not to sing,
but to carry silence
across the architecture
of forgetting.

WHEN THE FOREST FORGETS
—and the leaves remember for us
#poetrysupportbybt ✍️ #24hrbybt

She threaded my name
into wind-blown garlands,
braiding grief
into #medallions of evergreen—
as if memory could outlive
its host
simply
by
refusing
to
fall.

TO THE DEEP THAT RAISED ME
—an ascent written in fragments
