Light (長い光)

Through the shifting hues of autumn leaves,

Where winds of winter whisper and grieve,

I see only you, steadfast as stone,

A presence that lingers though seasons have flown.

Constellations tilt and fall from the sky,

Yet your light shines constant, never asking why.

The world may spin with chaos and change,

But in your eyes, I find a peace that’s strange.

Not fire that rages or burns with desire,

But a soft, gentle warmth, a quiet choir.

Like sunlight filtered through a canopy of trees,

You fill the spaces between with ease.

I once wandered in nights cold and long,

Lost in a silence where I didn’t belong.

Yet there you were, like the first break of dawn,

Turning my loneliness into a song.

Your love, not the roaring crash of the sea,

But the still water, calm and free.

It doesn’t scream, doesn’t beg to be heard,

Yet in its quiet, I feel every word.

Through storms that rage and nights without end,

You are the hand I reach for, the friend.

Whose touch is enough, no grand display —

A love that endures, come what may.

In moments of darkness, when stars disappear,

I carry your light, I hold it near.

It flickers not, it wavers no more,

A beacon that guides me to your shore.

And when the rain falls, soft on the earth,

I think of you and all your worth.

Not the passion of flames or the fury of fire,

But the soft warmth of breath, lifting me higher.

You are the breeze in the heat of day,

The quiet peace when all else sways.

You are the calm in my raging sea,

The one who sets my restless soul free.

Let my love be mirrored in your eyes,

A light that grows as the darkness dies.

For even in solitude, I see your face,

Bringing me back to my quiet place.

Through endless time, through nights that are long,

Your love remains — my everlasting song.

Not a fire that consumes, but a steady flame,

A love that endures, always the same.

Though days may pass, and years drift away,

I will hold you close, come what may.

For you are the light that never dims,

The quiet prayer, whispered within.

Even as the stars forget their place,

I find my haven in your embrace.

A love not bound by time or space —

You are my light, my endless grace.
