I'd love to turn you on.
the rain drowned us. it was in the depth of the afternoon, on a sudden early summer, a sad four pm that cradled us when the rain started to pour from its tearducts. just when there was no place, may it be in the heart of the garden or a small hut out in the ruins of a parking lot, we were, at the nudes and naked, nowhere. but the rain stopped but no, no creeping sun and when the clouds cleared up and our thoughts all silenced up, it was us on an idle bench which was somewhat wet and damp from the light rain; we were nowhere. the rain drowned us.

the rain drowned us
If you let me explore you with my rougish tongue, through your cavities and my carnalities, to the stark nakedness of your flesh and your soul, and you’d let me have a piece of your beautiful beautiful mind, I would enmesh it with my own broken and ****** soul. We would be one, heartbeats in sync, and fingerprints, and the panorama of memories would bind themselves in order to be a creature, as one, whose enigma permeates through the walls of this inexplicable phenomenon. You will satisfy the longingness yearned by each atom that constitutes my being, and I, a speck of invisible stardust in the universe, would radiate the faintest glimmer of light enough to suffice the life you need.

May 2, 2015 Saturday What are figures anyway? Are they accurate Or simply just a mere calculation, Converted from Fahrenheit to Celsius? And as this infernal summer sun Blasts itself high in the noon, What are figures really? What are figures anyway? Let the waterworks fall, Those cumulonimbus clouds cry Tears crash upon the asphalt; Nevermind that it’s summer, Just let it rain. And all would be well If you just let the love flow, Regardless of the statistics Of the population of broken hearts That fall in love In the cascades and ruins of untimely rain.

The Seventy Percent Chance of Rain
And each snowflake– Distinct and different Falls and is caught In your thimbleweed-lashes As it flutters against my cheek, Against butterfly kisses, In the Central Park. And there we were Nothing but frostbites And mothers’ mittens And childhood spirits. Bells begin to ring, Like the ones from Years of yesterdays. And what you did back then Was let each snowflake– Distinct and different, Fall upon you Like magic sprinkled on a dream.

Decembers
She’s a bone-clung loveless girl, pillows and comforters of wanted love suffice and supply her with the stardusts in the night, along with the ebbing and flowing waves of her sailboat dreams. And he is a wanderer of wanderings with eyes that are ready to take over and under the world; packed with all the innocence and bottled-up love songs, with the boyish playful smirks in the curls of his smile. Then, it just so happened that the world shifted. They are souls meant to be. It just so happened that two stars collided and a magic-bag spilled all over the place. It was a constellation pulled in threads, needles and bobble pins. The universe was never the same after that nanosecond. And he’d look at her with decency and yet with batted lashes of course, with all the guts he could muster to put up for her as she still suffers in uncertainty treading on thin, thin ice caged heart, skinny love and knotted locked heart. Puzzle pieces perfectly fitting and filling the gaps and holes and blotches and emptiness. Two worlds smeared with the colors of radiant red, pastel blue and hope lost-and-found pair of hearts that are far apart yet entangled and tied and bound by the red fate heartstrings, never ceasing to tug monotonously on their constant constrained heartbeats. They are souls meant to be. And souls meant to be. And souls meant to be.

Nathan and Nicole
Filter the perfect shade of the forenoon sun, Not too bright, not too dull. For with ease and carefree thoughts, You let the sunbeam-drizzling fairies play As the beauty reflected in your retinas. Capture this scenic view: Where the burnt chestnut colored oaks And mudstained sweetheart sundress of yours Dance in three-four beats of waltz. The Crayola strokes of the skies And the watercolor streaks of daydreams and nightmares Paint the canvas of your disquited thoughts. This is the peripheral view from your suncrashed irises and corners, This is your world. Let your knees down to your sore feet Be engulfed by the chasms of the bewildered grass, As the smile makes it way to your plump spring lips; Callused fingers from guitar strings Twirl and twist the blades, Cutting through flesh And green and red and blue and yellow, All sorts of color came spilling from your playful bruise. From this panoramic view of yours Of a wonder wonderland, Where the ticks of clock Follow the sunflower throughout time and forever, This is the beauty of that stem: A key to escapism To a well-dreamt lovely world.

Rio's Sunflower
We all perhaps know how Wendy waved at the night sky, bid a goodbye as good as a farewell, at the illusion of a pixie dust-flickered cloudscape of a voyage setting sail to dreams and fantasies stretching beyond time and infinitum. And she was showered with so much faith, trust and pixie dust, quaint tiny love-stained lips promises a kiss and sealed acorn, tight around her neck. And the sparkle in the glances of her lovely pair of blue crystal teals manifest in the whereabouts of a star second to the right. But the Big Ben struck half past childhood and play pretend and silky nightgowns are long time over. Innocence is robbed by a shadow lurking in the premises of what could have been for once the clicking of the keys to the lock and latch of the gates of the yesteryears, it could not be undone. The hook of a deceiving treachery robbed all the glow of a child’s pearl laced smile and the mere belief of the existence of fairies and the magical mystical boy who never grew up. She once laced her hands with his, past ephemeral and London night, and straight on till morning. The desires of her heart got lost in the sea of nowhere, as it raced against the foolish time; we all perhaps know how Wendy is never never return to never Neverland.

Wendy’s Tomorrow (A Darling’s Inevitable Fate)
Brazen rusted iron-scent of blood– there, before him, a river of crimson and failed dreams. No boat, no oars. Just plain chivalry and bravery and yesteryears’ scars that manifest all throughout and within him. He dips his feet. There were scattered skeletons and crunched broken bones basking under the dunes of the night. There were ghosts clinging unto his own ghosts; creatures against creatures. The tip of their swords sinking down to his own tired flesh in attempt to find refuge in the treacherous wings of the forests. He swims along. And his shoulders were battered and his mare was tainted– with dirt and dust and ashes of the enemies; with memories and silhouettes buried sent flying along the caresses of the north winds. He gasps for air, and stills himself under the ebbs. Under many moons and scarcity of life– Scarcity of Life– the recurring sight of the gaseous light and the inconsistency of the breath-intervals, he remains still and proud. His soles burnt with pain and interminable suffering as it crossed the stretches of the savanna. This is his life, dwelling on the dawn borealis and stained with apparitions of the past and demons and absurdity. He has crossed the river.

Lionheart
If you are absurd And you love it, Then you would probably Love this tale as well. I love to be in the nostalgia Of the bitter and blatant; No cream, no milk, Just the black swirls and whirls with rivulets of tears. And postcards were scarce And you play Ella Fitzgerald And drink seven cups a day, And no, honey, it’s totally fine. Delve and dive in the nightmares Of the past and the disgusting cheap latte, And add tears instead of brown sugar; It’s the best coffee you’ll ever have at two in the morning.

Espresso
Explore the timid quiet night life; Hear the billows of the gushes of the wind And the orchestra of the grasshoppers Within the blades of the knee-high grass. And as the fairies and nymphets, Dance under the umbrellas and mushrooms And the star-clusters of constellations, Walk past through the lane where lovers embrace, And you, all alone, with no lover or so, Just have to fall in love with whatever there is To fall in love with. The wax of Artemis, and the wane of Diana Beams at you in static cinema-like spotlight; The ghost of a girl with a battered heart And the dew-damp earth and rain On an empty 10pm cafè And the scent of a purple paradox, Oh, it’s death and so lively magic, Fill the night. Pick a petal, And pick another one And feel the stardusts coming into life.
