Michael Poem by Natasa To

For Michael

Michael, if my heart could speak,
It would whisper your name in every beat.
Some feelings words can't fully hold,
Some stories never need to be told.

You bring a warmth into my days,
A steady light in countless ways.
In every smile and quiet touch,
I find the moments that mean so much.

When life feels heavy, you are near,
A hand to hold, a voice I hear.
And somehow, in the simplest things,
You make my restless heart take wings.

No stars above, no words I write
Could capture what you bring to my life.
So I'll simply say what feels most true:
My heart is happiest when it's with you.
