Filipino 21 years of wandering. Still wandering.
Where are the love letters written by him during the wee hours of the morning with his mind slightly addled with alcohol that says he loved ******* her raw and he also loved her desperately? Where are the love songs that were sappy but genuine and Ella Fitzgerald's voice that talked of dreaming and loving and living? Where are the stolen kisses under trees and the flowers that wilted the next day and the girls giggling under blankets talking about fingers slipping under skirts and first times? Lost. Gone. Probably forgotten.

Romance
she liked the idea of being consumed she sometimes dreamed of being devoured by the dark and then she’d wake up and realize it wasn’t a dream

dark
the bittersweet taste of a last kiss will always be fresh on my lips the press of mouth on mouth the battling of tongues using saliva and passion to say goodbye

saliva
his scent still lingers in the deepest corners of my mind and sometimes i take it out to smell it only to realize i smell nothing because i couldn’t remember anymore

dead star
an open book on the desk clothes strewn across the floor a fine layer of dust covering the surfaces a bed not made but made love in this is our love nest and we love all day

We meet in the middle. Always in the middle. But this time. You walk right out of the platform. Onto the busy street. And left me. Standing in the middle.
