On a fateful rush hour day, I laid eyes on you Sitting across the cart, looking at your phone As my gaze wondered through your statuesque shape As I lost my sense of self, and I traveled in time I am twenty years old, and I told you farewell Unreciprocated love, I won’t see you again I am sixteen and I am scared but gather strength And with an unbroken broken tone say, I love you I am nine years old, between promises to meet again Like lightning ray, I don’t see, you took my first kiss I am five years old, and thousands of miles away Walking through the sandy shores of Piriapolis is you And just like when David faced Goliath Terrified but determined I approach you I am enchanted by your eyes and legs As I reach you, with a flower as my sword, whisper I like you You gaze at me and smile The subway doors open, it’s your stop, you walk away I am nine years old again, I and sixteen years old I am twenty I’m here and now, How wished I had a flower to give you

Time Traveler
Small and brown Wrinkled and worn It's insides hide secrets, nicks and some nooks Mold of thy mind, mold of my soul When pen finally falls When the body gives finally breath And man I am gone It will stress me none Because I loved, I cried, I laughed I lusted with wild desired, More importantly, reluctantly I confess That above all what puts my heart to rest Is to know that a tiny speck of me will still be here In this leather bindings my soul will live

On this Leather Binding
Blood of my blood Thick and strong like rivers mud You overcame many lows Gifted me wisdom; gave me love I gave you effort, I made you proud of And now I am you Blood of my blood My emotions flow like a biblical flood Little creature, little you, person of my core I gift to you, forever more, my love
