"UNSEEN GRATITUDE"


"Unspoken Gratitude"

A father's toil, a son's regret
For words unspoken, hugs unmet
The weight of work, the stress he bears
A silent thanks, in hidden tears

His hands, a map of endless labor
Providing for us, his constant favor
The creases deep, the eyes that strain
A father's love, in every pain

I yearn to say, to hug and share
The gratitude, that's hard to declare
But fear and doubt, they hold me tight
Leaving thanks unspoken, in the night

His sacrifices, a sea so wide
A depth of love, I cannot hide
Yet words evade, my voice does fail
A silent son, with an unspoken tale

Perhaps someday, I'll find my voice
And thank him, with a heartfelt choice
Embracing tight, with tears of joy
For all his love, his endless employ

Until then, I'll hold it true
And silently thank him, anew.

A broken wing, once soared so high, Now clipped, unable to touch the sky, A fallen leaf, once green and bright, Withered by choices, lost in night. Rivers of remorse flowed from his eyes, As shadows of past mistakes arise, Echoes of what could've been, Whispers of forgiveness, yet to begin. He searched for pieces of the past, To mend the shards that would forever last, A puzzle of lessons learned and grown, A new path unfolding, like a dawn. With every step, he let go, The weight of guilt, the chains that slow, A phoenix rose from ashes cold, A boy reborn, with heart made whole. The mirror's shards began to gleam, Reflecting growth, a brighter dream, The wing healed, soared once more, A leaf renewed, on a wiser shore. Time's waves washed away the pain, As sunshine lit a brighter plain, The boy stood tall...

"ECHOES OF YOU"

"ECHOES OF YOU" In empty mornings, I awake Missing your "Good morning" sake The sun rises, yet feels grey Without your text, my day's astray Every moment, I relive the past Your laughter, smile, and every gesture last Your eyes, like stars, shone bright and true Now, in their absence, my heart anew I miss the way you'd walk beside The swing of your steps, your gentle stride The soft whispers in my eager ear The warmth of your touch, dispelling fear Memories linger, a bittersweet refrain Reminding me of love's unfinished strain Our time together, like autumn leaves Fleeting beauty, fragile as summer breeze In silence, I hear your voice A gentle whisper, a heartfelt choice To hold on to what we once shared Though fate tore us apart, unprepared My heart still yearns for your embrace A love unfinished, a tender space Where laughter echoed, tears were dried And our love story, left untried Time may heal, but won't erase The memories of our unfinished days...
