Muted Thoughts

The days of loneliness are behind me, and now when I’m alone I just think about you.

Everything feels wrong at the end of a perfect day. We did it all right. So why do I feel terrible?

The battle is won, but the war rages on. Take your victories with you losses. Find your fuel. Grow stronger.

What use is it to reach for stars you cannot see? You first must climb. You can do it. One step at a time.

The thought of little footsteps in my home once scared me. Now, it brings me nothing but joy.

The sun greets the day as you greet me; with a smile warmer than fire could ever hope to be and an embrace as soft as clover.

Little knight, your day will come. But enough clamoring and screaming. Lay down your sword and sleep. Tomorrow, another fight begins.
