dear L, i might make the distinction that your l is uppercase. what does that mean? i don't know, but it was intentional and i'll keep it that way. i don't really know you, i just want to tell you that when you have your chin rested in the cradle of your arms on your desk, and your hair seems to spill over, you are beautiful. really beautiful. when you tilt your head slightly sideways and something like a smile traces your lips and you exhale. i don't love you, not in any way that would matter to you. i just wanted to let you know r.

There's a Play ~ There's a play, & you are the actor. Sadly, you don't know the script or the story to follow. You still perform aware or unaware. It’s an enigma. Scene by scene, sequence by sequence, Drama Suspense Romance Mystery Tragedy Thrill horror Adventure Action..... More's a floor of diverse genres. Each performed scene Hints & Script to the next, a prelude to another act. ~ Look ahead what’s coming next? Are you ready to act? & remain unpaid? And then, the intermission... leading to unfathomable End.~ The End ~~ My Act//Scene of writing this is successfully ended ! The End finally ~~

The Play
a potion maker,   seeking the formulae of the combination of the known and the none, the wizard’s ideation of the secret spark of creation, the starter fire of human destiny & desire who needs gold, when, the power of birth, the mystery of girth the fluids of oils, plus 57 varieties of human blood, in a precise tabulation the sap of human cell constructs, heated gentle on a low flame, do not forget, or regret if the salt & pepper of discernment is overlooked, the sighs, *the quiet of boredom, the leveling moments when creation is initiated* and then my heart can be known to some, even careful read between the lines ~ the lines on my eyes, the cross hatch upon a forehead, the crinkles where time and laughter intersected and injected *the whites spaces between these words* enough enigma… never!

Black Pepper
Bittersweet, honest conversations Chocolate and coffee on the side, is this our destination? My dear as you speak, chills run down my spine Thoughts of you, turn into butterflies as the moonlight shines Bread and butter, Silly little fights Stay seated at the afterglow my Romeo Oh! silly little fights end with kisses holding you tight My chosen one, you're my gorgeous pink skies   The butter to our bread, as it gets dark   My hyped dopamine, kissing my birthmark Up all night, you’re my greatest adventure * Fortune telling, as I dive into your golden clouds My brown eyes lay out our future Even if the dream ends, don't wake me up. Magic armour, aren't you the warrior? No more suffering, lessons were learned, Love walls, stakes high, hand in hand, jumping blind   Hold on to the touch, I’m yours at last The topic is forever swimming in violet grass Wake me up every morning to the melody of your voice Let my heart speak as my tongue wrapped tight Smiles in between kisses, forever intertwined Stars look like butterflies, heart's divine Can't finish my reader Emotions lost my words Rosey lips locked, shivers as you look into my eyes Forever, for eternity, forgotten lies Love for always, a love that's true.

Bread and Butter
Last I night I slept on your ceiling It was the most ghastly feeling to be looking down and watch you roll around with some other human being Now when I'm in my own bed I look up and see you instead But I know you'd never sleep on my ceiling

I slept on your ceiling last night
Hops and giggles echo in my mind as I tread towards my inner self, I take off my clothes that once hid me. I become the source of childish giggles, as I run around the eternal fire of youth that flush the wilted lilies with life once again. My hair's entwined with the scent of jasmines that cleanses my lungs of the storms, that once posed as my inevitable natural calamity.

clothes that hide you
nodus tollens- the realization that the "it" of your life doesn’t make sense to you anymore you call me your butterfly; your little butterfly child with my weak bones, weak skin and a weak heart. you call me your butterfly and my head fills with honey; you say you love me. you call me your butterfly and suddenly i can’t help but melting when you look into my eyes. you call me your butterfly and suddenly i want you to be mine till our wings become soft and dissipate in the warm winds. you call me your butterfly and say we are going to fly around the world to see the black sky paradises and the nightshade blues. and all of the other hues. you say that even in death our love will last forever. you said that when you called me your butterfly child. tell me i’m yours when we are all alone and maybe i’ll tell you you’re mine. tell me you love me when i rest my head on your chest. and maybe i’ll tell you i love you too tell me you need me when you run your hands through my hair while we lay in bed for the last time and maybe i’ll need you just as much. tell me you want me when you look into my eyes and maybe i’ll tell you i want you just as much. butterflies don’t say maybe and neither do i. i’ll call you mine when we are alone. i’ll tell you i love you when i rest my head on your chest; feeling every one of your heartbeats and breaths. i’ll tell you i need you when you play with my hair; the smell of you lingers in my hair as i lay in bed dreaming of all of our time together. i’ll tell you i want you when i look into your eyes; for when i look into your eyes the wind stops blowing the sun stops shining and my mind stops thinking. if you have to fly away that’s okay if know we promised to stay but sometimes is rains when it’s not supposed to and sometimes we pull flowers out of the ground just to see them die and change so i understand if the wind is going to blow you in a different direction but don’t forget about the days where we chased the sun and ended up talking to the moon and don’t forget about the picture-perfect memories where our smiles looked so big that no one would have guessed that we were not happy and don’t forget about all the nights we laid awake talking about the plans we had for ourselves and the plans we made together and don’t forget about every shock that you felt when my skin brushed up against yours. you are my butterfly. eventually, we will come together and fly. for now, you can visit the black sky paradise and the nightshade blues and i’ll come one day and be with you.

‘Not allowed to speak. Not allowed to die. Now allowed to be angry. Not allowed to desire. Are we allowed to at least remember? “ --Dedicated to a truth teller- Dr. WL.L I. Tears Isn’t the voice too fragile to alarm? the breaths within that death room, countless, cornered. Surrounded. Lost. Armful of mystique shrouded in gloom. Can we all hear the drops? diamonds tears clink and bounces.  The fatal seashores wrapped cries. Where an uninhabited hero lost his life. Tragedy that the height you fell from was meteoric. II. Truth He expected a thunderstorm. He had no other choice Except that isolated island- away from the maddening world. Except those wild thorns He was nurtured and became a solo star He was like a diamond among the stones Paranoid by his determination Why fatherly fate sent him to such a hell like mission. III. Wonders The winds chanted a loud symphony of sorrow. Where Dr.WL. L with a conscience, uninhabited hero … Who would reject the sample-evil has triumphed over the good Why the truth sunk into dead sea swirls? He was hopeless and looked down upon. Stormy roars, over a babble of voices. One truth teller doctor passed away. Thousands of eyes full of tears. Tranquil island, berried a brave soul Shouting for the devotion Smashing the majestic power Who shall turn an isolated island into a beautiful heaven?

Isolated island,an uninhabited hero
Succulents and decor, Meticulous cleaning, more friends. Swiping crazy on tinder, Online shopping, expensive skincare Ruminating on what was once there sitting, In suspended reality. Where were the parents? That child is dead now. Locked in a haze, trying to forget What a let down we’ve become. That’s just how it can be. **** that really blows. What you thought was flush, could just be bust. Watching Disney + shows, Toes the color of a mood. Brooding about the future, And saving the cash. Cooking up and meal prep, A meditation streak you’re scared to break. Excessive napping and rubbing ten out on Sunday. Dealing with small men, eating like a champion, taking a bath with an enemy then do it again. Avoiding all your frequents, Picking up your phone calls, singing Doja lyrics in a commute. Drinking away the anxiety, Staring at the tv, Covered in twenty Sherpa- You’re gone and I want to stay high But I’m settled in an empty room with self care books I hope this time it’s a womb and not a coffin.

Mourning
You bade me come Like blades of grass and shields of rye Like wind in mountain meadows past Like sun and moon and sky Your hand outstretched a breath from mine Midst mire known to sink I reached And took you in with a sight so deep You bade me come alive

Life
There's a green wide eyed bird of spring that stares at me every morning He looks at me with his protruding piercing eyes Never blinks nor moves stationary like the sands of the Sahara He whistles a song that echoes through my brain A scene only valid in spring made for the eye to admire He seems to live within the moment staring heavily Come visit me this fine spring day as I gaze back at my friend.

lovers are losers
Lust is gone because of broken hearts. Living terminates as excitement fades. Love stops when meaning is lost. Life is arrested at the scene of the crime.

Taking the L of Life
What is the name for the feeling Of being swept out to sea, clinging to a jagged piece of your old self? Migration always brings things back- In time... -full circle A shadowy maw spits Unfinished creatures squalling to life from my chest only to freeze and shatter in the morning sun Burning is just like heartbreak - hurting until it doesn’t anymore - But fish don’t cry; They can’t, Already choking salt water through camellia wounds gaping, Swords rusting on a lake bed Where they fell Trampled through the forest of you- Making room for rows and rows of boxes All empty - You needed the space to grow into something useful - Pushing yourself out of the way, A door cloven into a thousand dull fragments by an axe Shining, And swept out to sea to watch the Walls, constructed, take shape- Fish can’t cry even when they are burning in the lake Blowing empty bubbles at an orange sword - Pulled to the gaping mouth and deposited at the shore, And chains of empty spaces take their home, A conquest from within - What is the name of this feeling? Of being thrown overboard by your own hand, Clinging to the last remaining piece of your old self, Waiting for the gaps you left to be filled?
