A Tapestry of Us

by Kara Brodsky

What Is Love Poetry Contest Winner 
In the quiet hours,  
where shadows weave their stories,  
we gather the threads of our days,  
each moment a delicate stitch,  
a tapestry unfolding,  
brimming with the hues of our laughter,  
the weight of our sorrows.
 
Here, beneath the canopy of stars,  
we carve our names into the night,  
like constellations igniting,  
each flicker a testament  
to the journeys we’ve traveled,  
the roads less taken,  
the paths entwined,  
both rugged and smooth.
 
Love is the echo of your voice,  
a melody that lingers,  
the harmony that rises and falls,  
like the tides against the shore,  
an endless dance of give and take,  
where every wave brings us closer,  
yet respects the distance  
we sometimes need.
 
In the moments of stillness,  
we discover the beauty of silence,  
the weight of a breath shared,  
the warmth of a glance,  
as if the universe holds its breath,  
waiting for us to speak the unspeakable,  
to honor the sacredness of now.
 
And when the storms come,  
when the skies darken,  
we are the shelter for each other,  
the refuge against the chaos,  
finding strength in vulnerability,  
bravery in the tenderness  
that binds us like ivy to stone.
 
So let us build this life,  
not as a solitary pursuit,  
but as a woven embrace,  
where every joy is a celebration,  
every ache a reminder  
that love, in all its forms,  
is the greatest art we will ever create,  
the masterpiece of two hearts,  
alive, intertwined,  
a legacy of us.
