The first breath as you wake, / light slipping in as your eyes open, / the quiet promise of a new day

I write memorials no one reads, / like flowers placed on empty streets. / A quiet name, a quiet pain,

While I watch the falling leaves, / hypnotised, / you make a Nespresso.

I don’t daydream of being someone other than me. / Who else would I be? / And just like with lines

The garden of my heart / waited for a shower / of your love.

Lovebird by My Window
A bird by my window / made a tweet— then was crossed out; / becoming X… right after I cried myself

You said you would forget me— / like restless waves upon the sea, / crashing in the eyes.
