No way
No way could I forget you,
for even the wind carries your name.
It drifts through the trees like your laughter once did,
and I hear it in the quiet between my heartbeats.
No way will I close the door,
for the light from your world still spills into mine.
I leave it open, not out of longing alone,
but because I believe the path between us still lives.
No way can I unlove you,
for love is not a flame that dies with the night.
It is a root deep in winter’s earth,
waiting for the soft return of spring.
No way could that ever change,
for the soul remembers its own.
And I, in my most unguarded hours,
find you there always, and without end.
