To: Arden

Inscribed on each page of my life is your name

Countless faces can't defeat your light in me

The cross of our path sparks in my heart a flame

Hope of a future where love might be

Years of unsaid emotions are deafening.

My lips stay unmoved; my hands rest on my sides

But I've been praying for my wishful thinking

I fear somebody would catch the signs

Let destiny decide the rhythm of our feet

I'll preserve this moment of my life journey

For even if our grounds don't evermore meet

Our tale will serve as a blissful memory

To: Blake

Our bags and suitcases, just let them wait

For we’re basking in amber and violet

Coloring the canvas up high with grace

As the sun sinks into the skyline’s embrace

I care not for the sand beneath my feet

Nor the breeze teasing the strands of my hair

Let the sun touch my skin with a kiss so sweet

Just this once, I make a truce with the salt air

I pray these moments remain forever

Beyond the circle on our calendar

‘Cause with every breath, the sand, and the sea

In this paradise, I’m in harmony

To: Skylar

To the land of sunlight and daffodils

the mysterious messages bring us,

'till the barriers fall, our link transcends

beyond romances of the digital planes.

Without expectations, no prejudice,

your virtual presence gives me solace,

a safe space to open up and release,

to embrace my vulnerabilities.

Through our exchanged bubbles, I find the voice

to challenge the demon that's stopping me

from achieving authenticity, so

I'm me, unapologetically.

You listen to the depths of my thoughts,

guiding me as I embark on a quest

to heal the wounds left untreated for long

and mend the bonds broken along the way.

In the space of words, you're the confidant

who provides the key of a newfound chance

that allows me to rediscover trust,

to emerge anew, true and radiant.

To: Milan

In the depth of your spirit,

I witness a zealous heart.

But no reciprocal flames

as my soul lies dormant.

Yet though unseen, obscured by

the veil of indifference,

know my ember gently burns

for your passionate zest.

To: Drew

In the realm of rhythm and rhymes,

you take my hands, pulling me headfirst in time.

But you show me how to breathe,

to dance along the waves under the moon's beam.

Even in murky water,

you're the light guiding me home, ne'er to falter.

Yet I'm a mere raconteuse,

weaving tales from the depth of my inner truths.

Only your twinkling irises

ignite a flicker of faith within my voice.

'Til my words reach the star's embrace

in the boundless expanse of celestial space.

To: Jackie

These parallel streams we follow

Don’t sway to the same rhythm or flow

Only the constant distance they share

And time and space they respect with care

These aligned paths we’re walking on

Never lead to one final station

Only the comforting silence we clasp

And on the cherished smile we put our trust

To: Charlie

Counting on different compasses,

we are aiming for the same solace.

Listening to one another's rhythm,

we share a valuable emblem.

I may never be your number one,

and you may not always be my first.

But I trust our hearts are genuine

and our deep connection will persist.

To: Riley

This town I recognize,

but the circumstance feels new.

It's hard to navigate,

but you come to my rescue.

You give me assistance,

then propose an acquaintance.

You offer me a bond

and profound matters beyond.

Hands in mine, you take me out

to see nature under the clouds.

To feel the breeze on our skin,

and to find the beauty within.

Above all, you let me taste

a friendship so honest and pure.

It's a knot time can't erase,

a connection I will treasure.

To: Hollis

Again, we now end up in the same space,

one more chance to return to the old days.

But I can feel the chasm grow ever fast,

will we go our separate ways, at last?

[slippednsalto]

To: Jessie

What if we had never met?

Would I still wish for eternal bliss,

while fate graces us with different corvettes?

What if we had never met?

Would life haunt me like a silhouette,

for a future sans you leaves me in abyss?

What if we had never met?

Would I still wish for eternal bliss?

[slippednsalto]

To: Jessie

My heart yearns for solid ground,

a light when darkness abounds,

and a haven to call home,

where my soul can freely roam.

You show me hope of that world,

hand in mine, solace offered.

With each time spent together,

may this warmth stay forever.

To: Morgan

We share a bond, a mutual oath we swore

to unite the world and make its beauty soar,

Yet I struggle to find my way in this shadow,

and even with your presence, my heart feels hollow.

To: Arden

This once was just a fleeting thought,

an emotion that would come and go.

A fantasy that I had sought

but never dared to truly follow.

Then you appeared before my eyes,

and that tiny seed began to rise.

I never thought it could take root,

but soon, it bloomed a heavenly shoot.

One, I let you in my vision.

Two, you filled my mind with precision.

Now your songs are my secret tongue,

and your being fills my world, unsung.

[slippednsalto]

To: Hollis

Can we both look up at the sky

and see distinct sunsets go by?

Can we inhabit the same earth

and breathe air of different worth?

I thought I had the answer near

until I saw us standing here.

How do two disconnected hearts

find a way to share the same light?

[slippednsalto]

To: Sloan

You were but a dream,

a scene that appeared

every time my eyes were closed

just to leave bittersweet marks.

Seeing your name now,

feelings overflow,

surprise, joy, a hint of fear,

but gratitude, above all.

Your message speaks hope

of a stronger bond,

one I promise to cherish

and eternally keep fond.

[slippednsalto]

To: Nicki

I could stand right next to you,

or you could sit close to me.

Moments shared, memories made,

countless wonders yet to see.

But now you feel so distant,

slipping further every day.

Our jokes no longer align,

our eyes don't share the same view.

We speak in different tongues,

like we're worlds apart somehow.

Yet we're no strangers, it's true,

and I'm still grateful for you.
