"THE BLUES"

weeping
in a bath
of tears

bathing
in a puddle
of memories

WOTD

A clochard.
I've known one of the kind.
We said hello.
Then, I left.

"ETERNITY"

Some people sing. Some people write. Some people blow a trumpet. Some people are silent. Some people shout. Some people joke. Some people cry. And we all just go along.

"CASUAL BOWS"

life
a silk ribbon bow
born of delicacy
decorated with shine
and with one pull
unraveled

"A SOLE SOUL"

my comely red box
the petrichor lingering on my bed's sheets
my congregation diminished to these two
company kept behind closed doors
and open windows

"SUNDOWN"

i can feel the
nerves on
the skin of my legs
vibrate
at the thought
of you walking
through the door
because i
loved the part
where we fell asleep
entangled in
one another
and the part where
we never woke up

"CRYSTALS"

I found my shadow on porcelain walls
that you cradled me through

I crawled back for you
blinded from crystals
