In Love's Wake In dawn's gentle grasp, where silence lies, Remnants of the lost softly rise. Love lingers in the morning's hue, A memory, steadfast and true. With a spirit fierce, wild, and free, Your essence swirls in every sea. In waves that crash and tides that flow, Your strength in me, forever aglow. Words soft as night, a soothing spell, Whispering secrets the stars tell. In every glimmer, in moon's gentle sway, Your touch guides me, night and day. Wisdom whispers in the wind's soft sigh, Teaching tears of joy, the strength to try. In rustling leaves, in trees that sway, I learn to live, in love's array. In the sun's embrace, warm and bright, A journey of love, bathed in light. In every sunrise, in golden beams, I feel your presence, in my dreams. Passion's fire, in daylight's burn, Ignites a flame at every turn. In every spark, in radiant light, Your energy guides me through the night. In the ocean's depth, where secrets keep, Reflections of our love, so deep. In rolling waves, in the sea's embrace, I find your essence, your timeless grace. In every verse, in lines that rhyme, Your love endures, beyond time. Growing stronger with each new day, In my heart, you'll always stay.
