Taste

Isn’t it here Where we started Coffee, spices Blankets, cigarettes. A time; You and I were us. I took my plate And moved to the couch, You spilled Half glass empty. Through Spring and summer Fall and winter; We cook together The sweetest sauce. Forever we both Taste it sour.

Until You Feel The Same.

Does it hurts, The fallen strands from your skull or the scars around your nerves. It is the vengeance of my shades you turned white. Are you going to let me leave tonight? Ask me to stay, I’m excited to say yes. Confessions are overrated Until you feel the same. Relax; I said ‘tonight’. Let’s…

The Night I Hugged A Dog

I heard a knock on the window. Through the drapes, I could see Nobody was hiding in the shadows. Sounds of running feet The husky voices heard along Maybe I tripped. I dialed the first and second. And all of them Left a message and a few perhaps a dozen or more It scares me…

Your Favorite Secret

In the vicinity of them You don’t wanna talk about me. About them, you bounce off the wall Lying next to me. But am happy I am your favorite secret. It’s ok, you hold her for the music I still see you catch my smile Don’t worry, I won’t break your beats. Cuz am happy…

After The Ocean

If there is a choice for tonight I’ll plead for you. Are you trying to fathom the heart? All you will see at the mighty depth Is your smirky smile. You wanted horizons for me Walking over the tides Diving into the depths All I could find after the ocean Was the brightest sunset. Now…

Demon In My Dreams

Seven wonders, I have never seen them. Maybe I am destined to be with you. Lashes embraced the emerald. Petals in your kiss. Cocoons reeled the strands. Your hair tie is sacred. When I said, ‘I love you’ You blushed and butterflies. You smiled, covered your face. But when you moved those hands, what changed?…

Winter Solstice

It is true, I’m bleeding There is pain and clouding But I’m not giving up on you RED Senses drowning , it’s awful. Still see colors, and I’m grateful I get to live and scent GREEN Cast around the mislaid flake of soul, I’m afraid. Isn’t it deep, the ocean BLUE A penny for your…

Ctrl – Alt – Del

The secret that’s buried within me was better than Ctrl+S I won’t blame the fool who told me “Watch ‘backspace’ in action Erasers on the wallaby. Because it was I who made The choice Bold over Marker
