You
undress
my wounds
as if
they are
just as
soft
as my
skin.

Meera
you inhale tragedies
and exhale poetry
From where do you get your perseverance?

If I
show you
my wounds,
even
the ones
not yet
healed,
will you
turn
numb
to our
growing pains?

Heaven rained on me,
I breathed in the petrichor,
Bathed in the downpour.
I have sinned,
So destroy me,
With your rain.

I’m lonely but I make myself that way
I want to be loved, but I drive them all away

I wonder if poetry is
a humble attempt to reduce
the magnificence or terror of dreams
to words.
Starbucks generation
Stand in line
Heads down
Don’t make a sound
Get your venti iced whatever
