The Stranger I Married

 by my sleeping heart


I married a man I never knew,

not carved from dreams, not sky-born true

he smelled of earth and came in late,

yet I was there… and called it fate.


The night was blurred, the stars were kind,

I searched for touch I couldn’t find.

Still, something soft had come to stay

a quiet home, a gentle day.


He wasn’t rich, he wasn’t fire,

but in his world, I could retire.

No battles fought, no love to chase

just mornings warm in someone’s place.


I feared to ask, “Can I have more?”

I feared the knocking at that door

but he just stayed, and work was done,

and in his arms, I found the sun.


A life not built of perfect parts,

but stitched from peace and softened hearts.

No fairytale, no grand parade—

just tea, and dusk, and debts half-paid.


And in my dream, I wasn’t small,

I wasn’t begging him to call.

I wasn’t left to chase or wait—

I simply walked beside my fate.

As I Began To Love Myself....A Poem By Charlie Chaplin

  As I began to love myself I found that anguish and emotional suffering are only warning signs that I was living against my own truth. Today, I know, this is “AUTHENTICITY”. As I began to love myself I understood how much it can offend somebody if I try to force my desires on this person, even though I knew the time was not right and the person was not ready for it, and even though this person was me. Today I call it “RESPECT”. As I began to love myself I stopped craving for a different life, and I could see that everything that surrounded me was inviting me to grow. Today I call it “MATURITY”. As I began to love myself I understood that at any circumstance, I am in the right place at the right time, and everything happens at the exactly right moment. So I could be calm. Today I call it “SELF-CONFIDENCE”. As I began to love myself I quit stealing my own time, and I stopped designing huge projects for the future. Today, I only do what brings me joy and happiness, things I love...

The Second Night

 It was the second night I told you not in a rush, not in a storm. The house was full, the lights were low, your skin was tired, your hands were warm. I didn’t say it with a tremble, no heartbeat wild, no grand reveal just reached for yours beneath the blanket, and placed it where new life would feel. The room was small, the world was distant, your breath slowed down, then stayed a while. You didn’t speak, but in the silence, your lips grew soft, your eyes a smile. Outside, the kitchen clinked with dishes, a cousin’s laugh, a rustling sheet but in our space, time paused to listen as two heartbeats began to meet. You pulled me close, I felt you trembling not with fear, but something wide. The kind of love that has no questions, just space enough to let you cry. And though the house held many voices, and family passed us like the wind, in that small bed, you held a future you hadn’t known you’d find within.
