In your name, I sought to save this disenchanted part of time and distance that resides in me. Today, I bid farewell to the desire to return to my usual places. Here, I detach myself from the life that once dared not know of you. Because in your presence I live, I die only to be reborn, for Love returns us to our entire eternities. If one day I need to return, I will go without ever leaving. Devoted to nights for desires and days for dreams, tomorrow accuses me of telling stories that live in us, but that memories have not yet known. Steal my hours and strip away my fear when I dress in the sheets of your bed. Finally, I am your very home…

In every word of yours, I find a piece of myself that I did not know. It is as if, by writing, I unveil ancient secrets, kept in the depths of my being. Your presence transforms the ordinary into extraordinary, and every moment with you is an eternity unfolding into a thousand lives.

When I bid farewell to the desire to return, it is not a goodbye, but a see you later. Because I know that, somewhere in time, our paths will cross again. And when that happens, it will be as if we had never been apart. The love that unites us is eternal, transcending time and space, and returns us to ourselves, whole and complete.

The nights are devoted to desires that whisper secrets to the wind, while the days are dedicated to dreams that weave our reality. Tomorrow may accuse us of telling stories we have not yet lived, but these stories already exist within us, waiting for the right moment to reveal themselves.

Steal my hours and strip away my fear, because it is in your arms that I find true courage. Dressed in the sheets of your bed, I feel protected, loved, and at home. Because, in the end, I am your very home, and you are my refuge, my safe harbor, the place where I always belong. ❤️
