We all have stories, these are mine. I tell them with a heart full of love and through eyes of kindness.

Calliope Dreams

Love is not always loud. Sometimes it’s just staying until the music fades.

Wolfinwool · Calliope Dreams

I want to put coins in your ride till you get tired,
play you songs till you smile,
stay up late and hold hands till sleep takes us.

Keep you steady and still,
help you find the joy you seek,
while stars begin to shimmer and the moon reveals herself.

Secrets in the dark, jokes in the night,
a calliope plays jaunty and loud
above the laughter of children.

Still dreaming of you,
the record spins, I sing along —
lost in this bright tempest of hearts.

IDK enough about music to know if this works or not.

Verse 1
I want to put coins in your ride till you're tired
Play you music 'til you start to smile
Stay up late, hold hands in the quiet
Fall asleep in the warmth of the wild

Verse 2
Keep you steady when the world spins fast
Help you find the joy that’s built to last
While stars come out and the moon reveals
All the little things that make us feel

Chorus
Secrets in the dark, jokes in the night
Calliope laughter under carnival lights
Over the echo of our children’s delight
Still dreaming of you, still holding on tight
Lost in this tempest, this tempest of hearts

Verse 3
You hum along while the record plays
I watch you dancing through the tender haze
Time slows down but we don’t mind
Love like this is hard to find

(Repeat Chorus)

Bridge
And maybe one day when we’re silver and old
We’ll laugh about the nights when we broke the mold
All I want is to live where you are —
My lighthouse, my lullaby, my shooting star

Final Chorus (soft, then building)
Secrets in the dark, jokes in the night
Calliope laughter under carnival lights
Over the echo of our children’s delight
Still dreaming of you, still holding on tight
Lost in this tempest, this tempest of hearts
