Eclipsed by ecstasy,
etching ourselves,
from corner to corner,
we drew out the figures of our present,
and scribbled out the plagues of our past.
We marched in unison,
eager to cry out to the world,
All we had learnt,
and all that we had taught,
but could no longer remember.
Faces seemed to exhale wisdom,
Because not only the people,
But the air understood what we knew.
What we had always known,
Yet had somehow trapped away.
Purging our unconscious,
Spewing our fears.
The world as we knew it was in mid-applause
and ready to erupt.

Erupt to only find ourselves,
On the journey back from where we came.
As if we were molten hardening back to reality,
Where regrets and headaches,
fail to numb the truth.

Sometimes I wonder
If ill ever be a mother
I know if that day comes
Id love you like no other
I wonder what you will look like
Chewing on your little shoe
Will you be calm and quiet
Or a loud little bug- a- boo
I cant wait to hold you
And comfort all your fears
Ill give you a million kisses
'Cause time is precious and days turn into years
I cant wait for the first time
I hear your tiny voice say 'mommy'
And I tear up because I know its me
Its beautiful moments like those
That set our hearts free
To my unborn child
I already love you because you're a part of me
You are my destiny
And when you're born you will become my legacy

When I grow up,
I want to marry
A Hollister model.

Mother says
I should reconsider.
Seriously,
Reconsider.

But deep down,
I know
that's what I want.

Because behind all of
The airbrush
The diets
The workouts
The computer enhancements
There lies,
A woman.

And on that woman,
Somewhere,
there lies
Scar tissue?
A birthmark?
Or worst of all..
A zit.

Somewhere,
On that perfect woman
There lies,
An imperfection.

And that is why I love her.

At my house
I sowed and nurtured cockscomb
It withered, yet
No wiser, once again
I'll sow, I feel.
