We were fine
Then we weren’t
As if at the flick of a switch
Our relationship lay under the dirt
From whence it came
To where it stays
Tell me love
Is this the price of love I have to pay?

Burgundy walls
And bamboo
Light fixtures

A glass table
With two chairs
Just you and I

You brought me
Literature and
Coconut macarons

I'm not
Quite sure what it was
That I brought to you
The History: I wish I had known earlier, what love you bring. I should have tasted it in the pastries. Your love filled that place and I didn't even recognize it. I try so hard to make it up, but I feel I've missed a golden opportunity.

i can mimic the feelings
let out in the air.
i'll laugh at your jokes,
and grow somber through sorrow.

i'll act irrationally
when i should grow angry.

but deep within, i know
that i feel recreationally.

She likes me, so she

does know human nature, or --


is she just stupid?

Sweet eyes aglow
So kindly she smiles
My heart's been ridden
A million miles

In unison with time
The dust of day descends
Somewhere inside
We could all use a friend

In shadows of thought
Our psyche embraces
In the pulse of a smile
A glimpse of true faces

One last smile
Of pleasant farewell
So subtle the mind
As the heart is fulfilled...
Traveler 🧳 Tim
