Dust.

I know you won’t read this
and I know you won’t care
but I will tell you what it was like.

It was blurry.
it was slow
but time was running fast.
It was dusty feet
and dusty souls.
It was feeling nothing
and then all at once.
It was hating you
to drown the urge of hugging you.
It was writing a poem
and post it
wishing you will relate to it.

But who cares,
you don’t.
May 2017.
I wrote this instead of telling you, even though you were there, dancing next to me. And we were made out of poison, finding new ways to hurt each other.

nothing can hold me back now,
neither any luxury,
nor any love,
neither any goal,
nor any determination,
don't tell me now,
that you will be there for me,
when i have stood alone,
in the breathtaking storms,
watching my sail,
being blown away,
don't tell me you love me,
when i know you don't,
don't tell me it's all gonna be better,
when i already know,
you will always be you,
and i'll a;ways be me.........

you
the way it always starts,
conversations late at night to midnight and beyond,
never wishing for them to end, could they last for eternity?
but you always know,
you always know that the good things don’t last- months or years?
it will come crashing down
because love is not easy
love is not endless-
‘You’ will not last forever.

There is a light
I can start to see it
It is not dominant...
It is just a break from the dark.

If you crave freedom

You must let go of your chains

And change your old ways.

It’s time for me to change.

simple like rain
on a window pane--
it all sounds the same
drip drops
turn to hurricanes.

simple like rain
the tree branches sway--
wind passes through
whispers secrets to me and you
as the sun sets in the afternoon.

simple like rain.

The problem with protecting yourself with barbed wire is
people try to get close and end up wounded.

i wanna cut
my chest open
just to make sure
my hearts still
beating inside
