18/F/somewhere in this world I am the future
Before today, I’d never bite the cigarette You dangled in front of my lips; But the smoke is the scent of ‘regret’ All over you and our relationship. The smoke is dense, greying with each puff; It is poisonous and carcinogenic. I’ll accept your tease today Because perhaps our memories with each other will fade away As the smoke does once it is inhaled and released, Lifted with the winds.

Cigarettes and Memories
Swallow is a goof. Why do you fly like that, bird? You will harm yourself...

Know Your Consequences
I miss, and only miss... My thin chapped lips shall never kiss. Two years have passed; Depression swallowed my bliss. It ate my love to you, And the good old past I reminisced. I miss, and only miss... Empty heart shattered in night’s hiss. Two years, internally harassed; Demons work my soul at last! Darling—save me from the absence of your kiss.

What’s so good about the stars? Like humans, they live and die. But at least the burnt-out stars Look better than the bones of our dead; The dead who claim to ‘die for us,’ And rise again just like the sun. Galaxies expand all the time, And so I hope our minds. Call the black holes in our space, The sockets in our eyes.

I Understand That We’re Made of Stars
Observe the darkness; Yet the star and moon shed light; Yet my head has no Lit path in itself or a Way to waltz throughout its night.

Observe the Darkness (Tanka)
You have a mother; She doesn’t know That I’ve given you a paper That you have yet to throw. In other words, Your mom’s a ***

Who Ever Threw that Paper...
If there is purpose to life Then it is death, As all men die, And some men mourn.

Purpose
I was the female Whose eyes and soul Were like a mystery Wrapped inside a fairytale.

Once Upon a Time
I’m being burned: Burned by the water. The water’s hot, But I am hotter.
