Flower
And do you know that feeling
When you’re about to cry?

It creeps up your throat
Making that sizzling sound as it goes

And you fight so hard
To push it down
To keep it down
To hide it away?

It’s the same feeling with the words
“I love you”
They burn in your throat
Hurt your eyes
Torture your mind

But you push them down
Because if you spit it out
You’d be pushing him away

if the reader
falls in love with the character of a book,
their love can be eternal.

he can over and over re-read
each part of his beloved.
he can just stop for a while
and gently touch the mirage.
he can even ****** a piece
and carry it for a lifetime.

but what happens
if the character
falls in love with the reader?

the earth here
sees you as a thief
an animal with teeth
they won't look underneath

but the little kid
does not care
How are you? Yes, you, right there.
he sees you as a friend
or a teacher maybe
with life lessons daily
he tamed you
and you tamed him
majestic you are
protecting you will

you are everyone at once
with the right balance
"You become responsible, forever, for what you have tamed."
--The fox
--- Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, Le Petit Prince

CantSeeMe
in dutch "trap" means "stairs"
they say
stairs stand for growth

maybe a trap does too
so
what are you going to do?
think about it

badwords
Sleepless nights
between the sheets
all the curse
between us

futile fights
stranger meets
make it worse
because
This is absolutely terrible.

This is for posterity and a laugh.

luck & love is
something that
has never known duality
to me
it’s one or the other boy

i used to think it was
the cosmos,
in a past life i had karmic debt,
i believe now
love & luck is not timing
its alignment

CantSeeMe
I sit here on the floor
waiting by the door

for night to sleep
then I will speak

about
midnight rain
waiting for its train
about monsters so small
for humans to tame
goodnight
