A Gaze From The Unseen Summit Poem by Mr Musa

I only wish to say thank you,
Not because you stayed,
But because before you walked away,
You taught me how to walk again.
You whispered to me that the sky wouldn't fall
Just because one star no longer shines for me.

This story will never be erased,
Even if my life repeats in another time.
Your name is carved on the side of the mountain I built
With wounded hands, but a heart that never faltered.
Because of you, I learned that even pain can become a compass.

You were the morning dew on my heart's window,
Not always seen, yet always there.
You taught me to believe
That storms can be companions,
And wind can become a whisper of strength.

The one who now holds your hand,
I hope he knows…
That these hands once held you with devotion.
Though I've let go,
My prayers still shield your path
Like a shadow that never asks to be acknowledged.

If fate has not written your name
In the chapter of my current life,
Then I shall rewrite you
In the life that follows,
With the ink of stars upon the pages of midnight skies.
I will wait for you at the same summit,
So when our eyes meet again,
There are no questions, only understanding.

They say:
"A man must never drown in sorrow."
But they have never seen
The ocean I hide within my chest.
I walk with stones in my feet,
Yet my head still looks up to the sky,
Because I know my purpose
Is higher than mere mourning.

And if we meet again,
Let us not carry regret.
Let us be older,
Wiser in silence,
Stronger in our gaze.

Because this is how I loved you:
Without demand, without condition,
Not to possess you,
But for you to one day realize…
When your sun grows dim and your skies turn gray,
You'll remember the rainbow
That once quietly sheltered you from afar.

I don't ask you to look back,
But when the world crashes down on you,
And you climb again with trembling legs,
I hope you look up
And see me standing at the peak,
Still waiting,
Not to claim love,
But to make sure you never lose your way
In this ruthless world.

Because I am not myself without you...
But this love I will bury gently,
And place it in a sacred space within my heart.
For you are my vow,
The last woman to ever hold a place in my soul.
