philippines “we're fascinated by the words- but where we meet
is in the silence behind them.”

vague words, they're silent. they're honest. tasteless, yes the rain. or your cigar. it's black, it's white. like the skyline. plain, yet obscure. imposing, but unnoticed.
what if for a second, you can love me back. look at my eyes the way i adore yours. rub your supple lips to mine 'till i break apart. squeeze my hand and never let go. write poetry about us, like i'm the only thing in the world. wake up next to me, after those soothing lullabies. feel your body, close to mine.
that stigma. stings like a bee. like those unread poems for her. gray skies and saturday sunsets. the road less traveled. i want to see more. but i'm practically dead. and it's a sad thing.
