My heart flutters in wonder
Could he be there down or up ender
So silently my heart prayed
No one heard me,
But you heard my whispers.

I don’t know what to make
Of this forbidden fruit of soul
So tempting, yet elusive
Wanting you more and more.

These thoughts don’t make any sense today
You were here yesterday,
Vanished in the name of tomorrow
Still today I stayed waiting,
And waiting till the dusk came.

You are in a different time zone
I am aware, your actions are delayed
And gratification never received
Sometimes all I get is frustration

For you never come and never stay
And your thoughts keep jumping
Till they are all gone away.
I’m still to earn your company,
Tried the fast way, it wasn’t you, honestly
I found you rough in the edges,
But still a diamond

And the diamond you are, no doubt.
But you have cut yourself in illusions
Cant break through your prism
Of delusions.
Perfect life, best wife, beautiful children
Are what makes this facet charming
When I see you, you still over look to see
How green I am standing.

Maybe green is your favourite colour
You love seeing me inhibit it
But life is more than envy and facets
It’s about no leaking and fixed faucets.

I saw all that you showed
And in awe, I was struck
By your soupy magic
No more games
If you are who you say you are
Then come home.
And if illusions and light tricks
Amuse you better
Then stick to your lies,
It’s time I found a new partner.

a summer night
moonlight spilling
onto your bed;
a fleeting memory
a moment lost in time
laying beside you
a beautiful rapture;
and all the chemicals in my head.

you are
my dreams’ reel
frequent inhabiter
rarely a bypasser
feelings lost
sight, almost

My fingers ached as I pried a box
from the sides of my mail slot.
I ripped it open with my bare hands,
and found a note written in cursive:
"Put both feet into the box."
I raised my eyebrows and smirked,
but I stepped into the box.
The base folded in on itself,
and my feet crashed into waves.
My lover floated with the seaweed
until he finally reached me.
His hands brushed my shoulders,
and I whispered, "I think we're lost."
My arms burned as I valiantly fought
to reach the uneven surface,
but his eyes sparkled with mischief
as he took my webbed hands,
pulling me toward the ocean floor.
Flashes of light hit my eyes.
and he led me toward the light.
My fingers brushed the floor,
then wrapped around a rough chain,
and my heart punched my chest.
Glittering diamonds surrounded
a heart of azure sapphires.
He led me back to the surface
as the heart overpowered me.
He unclasped it with ease,
placing it around my neck.
As my hand lightly rested in his,
the water droplets joined us
as we flew toward the sky
right back out of the box,
our hands still intertwined.
