#9 // a most beautiful star, circa 1943.

you’re selfish to ask me
to find a better you
im selfish to say
a better you, isn’t you
……

I think we need a safe word

I think we need a safe word
For me, if not for you
You make such funny noises
When we are one, not two

A Poem

She waits with bated breaths

Okay

Today was a good day.
I managed to get out of bed and brush my teeth,
Take a shower,
Even comb my hair.
Today was a good day.

Inheritance of Heels

The blisters on your feet

You left… I stayed

Today, you left
I stayed
You told me to stay strong
To take care of the ones I love
But still you left…

‘Siberian Sonnet’

I was eager to write to you

For so long, but, alas,

YOU ARE SOMEBODY:

Rapidly changing,
Ruthlessly taking,
Soullessly breathing,
Saintly swallowing.
You are,
You are,
You are somebody who has no heart.
