But
I was lost until I found me in you
But now I am lost again
I still look at you with the eyes that wants you
But your eyes are cold like the storm
I asked you if everything could go to the way it was
But you were already in someone else’s arms

                                                               ­                where are my clothes...

she wakes with a start,
your little robin and her
bare-breasted sunday morning

                                                        ­                       where. are. my clothes?

the sweet, white milk,
coffee barely missing her lips, i am pushed away yet
cascade down her sweet chin, neck, and out my window
onto the clothesline below

staining her

I  was   one  -night
saying   lonely  to  police
bikers  who  has  already
left  the  
patrolling  area.


that  i  was
in  love
by  honey-trap.


But  really  my  heart
did  not  permit
it.

I  was  saying
false.


I  was  saying
to    my  friends
and  other  working  people
that
I  was  not
in  love
in  2013  for 6  months.

But  my  heart
did  not  support  me.

I  was
saying  false.

blinded by you
I thought it is love,
mayhaps it was,
it should be love.
I am not aware,
maybe it was more than
just an intense desire.
it was and oblivious
by loving you.
oblivious of my love

A six-word poem challenge
Ciel Dec 2018
One day,
I allowed myself to let go.
I was no longer a label.
I was no longer a dancer.
I was no longer beautiful.
I was no longer a poet.
I was no longer a woman.
I was no longer black.
I just was.
