a single sight of you is just like
inhaling after breathlessness
trapped without air
just to come into utopia

a single touch of your skin is like
an electric shock to the heart
a defibrillator reanimating me
breathing spirit into my lifelessness

a single kiss is like
all I’ve waited for
my hopes and dreams suddenly settle
at the touch of your flawless lips

but without you is like
being ripped of all dignity
destroying me slowly from the inside because

*i need you
i see you.
but i don't think you see me.
i see you.
your fingers intertwined with hers.
her head on your shoulders.
and your hearts on your sleeves.
i see you.
and oh how i wanna bury my head in the crook of your neck.
oh how i want you to hold me tight in your arms.
oh how i just want you.
you.
just you.
i just really want you.
why?*

because when he talked to me
I felt this sound
this inner symphony
making trouble inside my mind
and then all I saw was him

because even the sound of his name
makes me shiver and think about the past
makes my knees dance to the sound of his voice

because his scent will remain intact to me
even if he changes his perfume
his natural scent will hunt me for ages

because his words will always be in my memory
even the ones who hurt me the most
even the ones who made me want to die
in vain

because when he left
I realized I was already dead
because I was in love
 Feb 2015 just survive somehow
qi
You pulled apart my heartstrings, restrung them again
And sung a ballad of how we'd end
You give me premature ventricular contractions.
---

You touch me like a melody;
playing my skin like a silent song.
With your finger prints across my ribs,
and lyrics pressed between our lips,
I can feel you in my blood.
