Could you love me at once?
The way you do in my dreams,
Lying on the viridescent growing tendrils of grass
The beat of your heart being my lullaby
Your fingers strumming my side
as I took a deep breath from the nook of your neck
The redolence of earth dimmed as your cologne
marked me as yours.
Your fingers slide to my cheek,
caressing the skin dotted with freckles,
connecting the pattern they made.
My content sigh
tickled your ear, making you laugh.
A gust of wind blows my hair all over your face,
the fingers leave my cheek and settle in my hair.
Playing with the ebony strands
shuffling them, I stare into your umber eyes
and your lips descend to mine
claiming me gently.
Could you love me like that in reality?

The gold chain rests on the nape of my neck
and being unbuckled,
slowly slithering down till the swell
of my breast. Resting right at
the tip of my heart.
A swish of my hand to get the chain
and steadily it settles in the valley like the sands
in a calm river of desire,
Another move and the river with its sand is
going out to the flat expanse of my stomach
and spreading out into the ocean.
I catch the chain as it falls out the shirt
an added charm of pleasure it felt.

I played with the charcoal pillow on my head,
My greedy fingers refusing to let go of those soft strands,
I stared into the mirror to get the pillow to rest,
When I saw the monster society had created.
A self-centered human being who thought everything nothing,
Her dress must be crisp and no crease should be shown,
Her fingers were polished and there was not a single cuticle out.
But these same fingers used to be so sickly,
Her body covered with marks of a razor’s edge
Her heart bruised with the words of others
And in her painful flashback she remembers the words,
“I am used to it”
I don’t see that pain filled girl in that mirror anymore
I smirk; this is the best for me I thought
And then mirror cracked and my reflection was broken
When I saw the monster society had created was no better than the sickly girl.
I wasn’t accepted by my own soul.

Around those almond eyes
Onto the eyelash
A black abyss for the drop to rest on
Blink!
And it’s rolling on your cheek
Ending at a intricate petal
Whose extending end turns to form a smile.
But that petal withers
Like a downhill fall of a desert dune
The dry air she tumbles past
The eroding sand filling her dying heart
Her mouth closed
Refusing to scream, to struggle as she lies in the blowing dust
Suffocation, as she is covered by the mourning winds
She lays there lifeless… her tears now dried up.

Don’t Trust
On the far side
Under the diminishing light,
With stars for eyes
We sadly say goodbye

To know you live
My very soul
Is able to survive

On such dark, preposterous lies
Your promise sealed
With your everlasting kiss on my lips
You fed me stings.

I fell into a trap
Of forever sadness
Hidden in a corner whimpered my soul.
A hurting heart with a broken seal
The fear of falling,
cloud my eyes.
To know you exist
I Die.

— The End —
