hold me close
in the silence
hold me still
through the rain
where #warmth
keeps us feeling
love is still alive
beyond the end.

we are the symphony
of the ocean
we are the #harmony
of the waves
we are the notes
where magic grows
we are the dreams
where love is made.

I don't know
what the truth is
but I love every moment
between us

I don't care
about the forest
all I know are the waves
between us

I don't wish
for anything more
just the raindrops falling
between us

I don't dare
to ever betray
the #quest of heartbeats
between us.

because this world's
harder than hell
because I happen to find
heaven in you
cause you feel my #velocity

it's the waterfall words
that never will end
it's my heartbeat here
that always finds
its way home.

your #stellar eyes ignite forever
your afterglow inspires the deep
your magic ways invite the music
that is what my heart will keep
when the final starlight fades.

my story is this
born and raised
in wilds of the north
with a heartbeat
#crazed yet unafraid
because I am
the fire that writes
a song in your life.

some seek bliss
some seek perfection
they'll never find

when they're looking
in the wrong direction
on those shallow tides

I was blinded
#beastly by a dream
that never was

now I'm here because
you're the light
that never went away.

one #kiss
to reach
my heart
one touch
to feel
my soul.

and it hurts like
a sunset without you

cut my heart with words
that don't get through

the light of the stars
piercing the night sky

this #wound won't heal
with no dream to feel

let me close my eyes
to start this song over.

there's a river
runs beside me
in the winter
cold as hell

past a churchyard
sings my heartbeat
where your teardrops
never fell, never fell

time brings the #ghost
love promised
dreams are all I have
to know you again.

we are where we are now
turning through the #shadows
we don’t know about the dreams
that have been or gone
but you and I are something
everything, every place we need
and come the sunrise
we’ll find out where two hearts belong.

it's the songbird
perched on the bare branch
humming its way
through the misty hours
it's the last chance
to hear the #thrum
of distant heartbeats
before the sunset.

my northern heart you've heard
my southern dreams you've read
my soul you've felt it #quiver
my words are my journey
my truth is what I've bled
my love stays here forever.

yes I do heap praise
on the stars above shining
thank those eternal flames
whilst heartbeats are colliding
yet forever in my soul
as we glide these constellations
heaven saves my #gratitude
for the beauty of your depths
what can be more reverent
than adoration from afar.

do you #recall
I told you
that I adore you
with every heartbeat
and will you fall
like I fell
when I saw you
for the first time.

for every heartbeat
is a love song
sowing a #memory
made of notes and words
a movement of the moment
a piece of life
a rhythm of dreams.

see I know not
what tomorrow holds
nor can I profess
the #successor of us
when the final sunset
casts its silent shadow
I know only this
upon that star-filled night
as the last song plays
we're dancing at #apogee
our hearts will be ready
for whatever happens next.

blink and you'll miss it
this heartbeat passing by
lyrics of a love song
written in a winter sky
even if those words
would elicit a response
from heaven's light itself
it could never outshine
the glow that's in your eyes
it should be #illicit
to ever let them close.

for my soul sails
in dreams of you
some say #bewitched
but that's not it
it's how you make
my heartbeats feel
searching the waves
for deeper meaning
saving the words
for unwritten days.

it's such #consolation
love gifts us words
music and dreams
some kind of magic
I hope, I pray
our hearts find solace
there is more
much more to come.

winter skies foretold
for #augury drifts
in the wings
of wandering birds
and here I dream
of a million words
left to write, left to sing
shaping heartbeats
into a language
only you understand.

find my heart lost
in #vespertine dreams
just like a flower
that clings to the moonlight
or an eventide zephyr
that sings over the sea.

as #aphotic december
descends into stormy art
painted with each snowflake's
chaotically beautiful fall
cold northern air encircles
dark, empty nights will try
I hope your heart remembers
only you take my breath
only you light up my soul.

it's about the first
time two souls connect

it's about the #last
heartbeat that echoes back

it's about the love
which knows no end

it's about the dreams
that haven't happened yet.

you'll be asking why
tomorrow you feel
every dream I've been dreaming
you were #learning
all the pieces of me
turning black and white
the universe melting
into just you and I.

I held a mirror
to the end of November

as the raindrops fell down
you were in them

you were listening to the song
that I'd written

and your heart it raced along
to the rhythm

each lyric a #reflection
of how magical you are to me.

the days we share
the nights we dream
every heartbeat
#timed to perfection
to find the one we love.
