To Lordy, my friend, my poetry muse,

in words and in verses, we find our truths.

We share lines like secrets, stories untold,

through poems that shimmer, fierce and bold.

She reads my lines, each stumble and start,

encourages me, word by word, heart to heart.

She says, "Keep writing, let the ink flow free,"

and in her belief, I start to see me.

Through laughter and lines, through stumbles and grace,

she's the one who's always held this space—

A friend, a muse, my poet's guide,

with her, my words don't have to hide.
