Nicotine

Alix McLeod Nov 2020

Nicotine

It’s fair to say that
You are the nicotine
Running through my veins.

I adore you, while you
Are indifferent to me.

Still, I inhale.

Songs in a Hurricane

Alix McLeod Nov 2020

Songs in a Hurricane

You came into my life
As quiet as the winds
in a hurricane.

But you left
As loud as the songs
I wish I had never heard.

And those songs never stop playing.
