i’m alone,
craving his touch,
his breath on his lips
his fingers between mine.
and i realize, at most, that is a wish,
not a possibility.
Isn’t it funny,
The happiness we pretend to have
Is the very thing
Holding us back from living.
Poets are rats in no man's land.
Death rotting on the bone is a
cratered field of dead poems.
We charge into the endlessness
set our words on fire and fall
onto them as sacrifice.

A kiss under stars
is the greatest place to be
For they are our sparks


Hard to believe we're in March! Time is really flying by.
This one is just a small haiku for my journey.
Something I've always dream to have, haha!
It's a girlish dream of mine but a dream none the less ☺💜
I'll hold onto it though, in a better time and when I'm in a much better place.
Please stay safe and well all, everyone! You and your families!
Much love,

Why
Why is my face like this
Why do I wear the kiss of rose on my lips
My eyes carry the true bliss of the earthy abyss
My fingertips can bring the apocalypse.

Why are my cheeks this soft white
Speckled with a bite from the true desire of the night
Red. Blood floods my body in this flight of life.
Why is my skin so white
When what lives inside me is the true sight?

My lips move in the form of lies
My hips roll in the rhythm of this disguise
Is this all to mesmerize some sore eyes?
Is that why my fingers always rise to analyze?

Long legs , soft flesh
But this will not stay fresh
My lips will lose their kiss
And I will miss my arrogant hiss
But why these?

That brown like a spring breeze
Those hands and feet , heart and mind
Thank you to whoever is behind
Because you learned me to fly blind
In the mighty wind.
This is for those who question their body. You are perfect
When I say I love you
What I'm trying to tell you
Is that no matter what
This world throws at us
It won't shake me lose

When I say I love you
What I'm trying to say is
I will fight the biggest battle
The strongest monsters
Just to hold your hand

When I say I love you
What I want you to know is
I am here through this timeline
And through the next
So I wanted to let you know
I love you
