Untitled

dark waters rising
a flooding of emotions
and a heart longing.

now and forever
at the edge of the river
my eyes are searching.

Sleeper build | Haiku

I have what you would
call a sleeper build — only
mine is built to sleep

Sunrise

The world is waking
A cacophony of birds
The sun cracks the sky

haiku 25/6/19a

a mangy man sits
dusty road with mangy dog
many cars pass by

Adulthood

Adults in disguise,
once gods to their children’s eyes,
now lost, just like us

Personal reminder: every adult is still a big kid doing their best.
That thought makes the world feel a little softer to me.

Decembre 3d

Crickets sound in night

Crickets sound in night
The hum of faraway cars
Greets my windowsill

Lanterns give off light
That blocks the sky full of stars
Some street cats quarrel

The air feels too tight
The hour like metal bars
Air too hot and still

Can't sleep 'cause I'm ill

Just how good | Haiku

ᴵ don't just undress me
unwrap me like a fresh bound
book straight from the press

ᴵᴵ then don't just kiss me
seek me for air and for warmth —
as you would the sun

ᴵᴵᴵ and don't just make me
feel good — savour me — show me
just how good I taste

BloodOfSaints 6d

Grave Robbing Hearts

They don’t hold your heart like I do.
They can’t.
They’re just standing in my grave.

You know you’re forever mine, right?

Mariah 6d

And I love her

My younger self would
love that I watch the movies
she did too, back then.
