`
You let me fall,
from bed to horizons -
of your perplexing staircases,
where I wander deep
in fragments of silence
amidst strings of dreams
and pedestal of hope,
I take a step
leading to your smile;
a million breath
through countless sigh -
just to see you,
seal your weary heart,
and hear my wounded name.

This one just pulls a sigh from the heart.... beautifully written and with such a gentle voice here. I loved this one, especially those closing lines...they linger in the eyes.
Hope your Valentine's day was good

Wonderful use of alliteration, and emotions. So sad, and on Valentines Day yet.
