Thousand Life Heart

She moves like she remembers every world she’s ever seen, Footsteps in the dust of places caught between. There’s a quiet in her breathing, like a truth she never tells, A history in her shadow where a thousand lifetimes dwell. And she keeps her eyes ahead this time, Even when the past pulls at the spine. She carries all the shadows of the lives she used to know, Every loss and every triumph written in her glow. Still she keeps on moving, even when the stars fall apart A thousand lives behind her, beating in one heart. She carries little moments from the lives she left behind A laugh, a name, a promise echoing in time. Every triumph, every heartbreak, folded neatly in her chest, A constellation made of memories she never laid to rest. Still she walks into the night alone, Chasing something only she has known. She carries all the shadows of the lives she used to know, Every loss and every triumph written in her glow. Still she keeps on moving, even when the stars fall apart A thousand lives behind her, beating in one heart. She’s learning how to breathe again in moments built to fade, Finding quiet in the spaces where her past mistakes were made. There’s a softness in her footsteps now, a calm she never knew A future taking shape from all the lives she’s passing through. And she feels the pull of something new, A path that only she can move into. She rises through the silence where the timelines fall away, A thousand voices whispering the truths she couldn’t say. And every life she carried turns to light inside her chest A universe unfolding where her weary heart can rest. In the glow between the worlds, she finally understands: She was never just the echoes, she was always the one who stands. She carries all the shadows of the lives she used to know, Every loss and every triumph written in her glow. Still she keeps on moving, even when the stars fall apart A thousand lives behind her, beating in one heart.
