So graceful and angelic, she’s such a breath of fresh air As she sways back and forth, disco lights shine through her hair. Looked once, looked twice, I’m trying hard not to stare I can’t help it, we locked eyes, a gaze we both share I start smiling as she blushes, the space between us grow close Trading pleasantries and dancing, as the music composed Her hands clasped around my neck, mines rest at the small of her back She smells so delicious, 99 Pollems to be exact Press my lips gently against her forehead, she plants her head in my chest Everything around us is a blur, she has my complete focus at best With my right hand, I grab her left, and I give her a twirl And we danced the night away, just me and my favorite girl

We were caught in feelings—like cake filling for the treat of love; sweet at the centre, soft where it mattered most. You once said, “treat me better, than all my past scars” and I didn’t argue—because I knew my past had its fingerprints on me. The past isn’t just memory… it’s a scar, and sometimes, it feels like a quiet kind of self-harm we keep revisiting. So we tried to date our love— date it, name it, count it; for a while; four days, those four letters: L—O—V—E. As if repetition could make it real, or make it last. We moved to music— soft enough to feel, not just hear; you said, "walk a mile in my shoes," and I wondered how far love really goes before it starts overstepping. We’d joke, push, pull— careless banter just to get the last say, saying things we didn’t mean just to mean something. Love sick— no urgency, but always an emergency. We told ourselves we were made to compliment— not complete, just mirror the missing parts. To others, it looked complicated; to us, we complimented each other. Some nights felt like washing dishes— a plate full of desires, soaked in soap and second chances; bubbles rising, popping one by one— like years we hadn’t lived yet. We promised not to settle, even while standing still; wildfires in quiet rooms, burning without smoke. And in the dark— when love felt less like light, more like searching— we’d sit in silence like an old couple on a bench, two lovebirds of the same feather, perching through time. I think that’s the ending I want— not perfect, not loud— just something that stays… long enough to become a story worth finishing.

Dear Jenna, When the War is over, I'd let you sew my torn uniform. I'd let you sort my inner storm. When the War is over, I'd let myself prove every poem written on love. Placing my devotion on high above. Jenna, I'd bring you daisies and tulips, Your lips and my lips–apocalypse. I'd tuck flowers in your hair, And recite every word unsaid in your ear. I would run my hands through your strands, As if flowers are holding hands. Jenna, I'd hold your hand and walk infinite path through the shore, We'd stare as the sky weds the bluesy outpour. My darling Jenna, are you really upset with me? But you are prettiest mess I could ever see. I promise, just let this war end soon, I would buy you roses every afternoon. I love you Jenna, and this is my vow, I'm that boat that kneels waiting for you to row.

When the War is Over.
When you wear my hoodie, the room retunes itself— cotton becomes a cathedral, and I forget how to kneel without wanting to kiss you. Your silhouette hums in 3/4, a slow waltz between collarbone and sleeve, where my pulse drops to pianissimo just to hear you breathe. I am a god who speaks in broken measures, counting stars like rests between notes, trying to learn why mortals call this gravity and I call it home. Your beauty isn’t loud— it’s the kind that bends orchestras, that makes a metal heart soften its distortion and choose melody. So let me stay here, unfinished, mouth hovering at the edge of your smile, learning—at last— why endings keep returning as kisses I never regret wanting.

Hoodie Hymn in a Minor Key Inkwept, the God of Endings
I find myself looking at you, and for you, more often than I should — You visit me in my dreams, our affair dancing on my subconscious urging me that I would — I touch myself, When I am transfixed on you, and in those moments I truly believe being with you could be good —

"here's looking at you girl!"
I was daydreaming again when it all came rushing back, the flood of emotions so intense it left me hollow. Like I had spent my whole life missing something , only to brush against the edge of it and watch it slip away before i could reach out and grasp it. I remember asking you to stay close, just for a moment, just to share the warmth. The warmth that clung to you stoked a fire in me I didn't know a body could hold. I remember the weight of you, the way you straddled my hips, leaning in so close that I could just taste the smoke and mint on your breath. I remember the flush that crept up your cheeks at what you almost did, one you'd probably deny was ever there. My cheeks burned twice as red when I realized I wouldn't have stopped you. Did you notice my heart racing? Or were you gone too fast to feel it?

She met him on a bridge. I do believe we love at first sight, Since we “see” the person within the first 30 seconds, But that is beside the point— I think that they were pondering on diving, Not knowing whether the water was cold. I’d like to believe That they saved one another On that bridge, Bringing my ancestors together, In a loving embrace, Or, even, a kiss, too. Or just a hand Leading them Off from the edge of a bridge And in-love. ©2025Ellen Finn

Miss Scarlett (in Budapest, Hungary)
In those seven years our life projected in movement Like an 1895 Cinématographe. It was like a train had arrived at our station – Clutter, clutter, clutter – pssst! chugga-chugga, chugga–chugga–chuff! Our lives played out like short films. A novelty: short, silent and now black and white. Drinking pale ale, we spent time at The Sea, and washed it down with Club 54. I was your Annabelle – You? William. Our hearts were on display for Wilhelm Conrad. I bustled my silhouette as we Benzed through dramatic evenings. Some days we gazed through Parlour, sat in classicals – at night we hit the ragtime. This world was jewelled, mauve and golden yellow. Heavilon ticked. And then the train crashed into a Paris wall. Seven years end This was fall. The king tipped over. Judges gathered, you ripped me lion, out your chest Tore me away and left my heart in half. We can never go backwards. “whirring…”

Heavilon’s Tick
Why on Earth this happened to me Out of "8 billion people in the world" Did i wake you up from your cursed slumber? Oh master of fate and destiny? Who can decide what crown i wear Or what thorn i wear? The thief of my joy I will slay you in every possible way. Our life in garden once lived Among butterflies, Lily's and roses U danced under the fairy dust While i sat adorning every glamour. Love and trust beyond compare We talked of forever and getting old together. We had it all planned and future so bright. We named her as well, do you remember? :) Eight years of journey seems like i just met you yesterday. Those midnight text and silly talks :) Time was all that we had. Bond so strong, nothing could deny. :) You fought strong, u know what i mean :) You choose me, I was blessed. Brought joy that shaped us The past that taught us. :) A few pages or even a book Cannot contain the thoughts of us. But untold words we could even understand Even before it reached our tongue. Alas! But life has other plans, and we must abide A barrier between us, that we couldn't deny No fault of ours, no mistake, no sin Just love that wasn't enough, to win. I know Its hard for us to accept the fact Oh, how I wish we could defy The circumstances that tore us apart, and deny But life doesn't work that way. :( A love that once burned bright, But now your so out of sight The future i could not grasp But This love i cannot replace. In the silence, I hear your voice A whisper of memories, a haunting choice To hold on to what we had, or let go But how can I let go, when my heart beats for you. In dreams, I see your smile, your eyes so bright But when I wake, the ache remains, a constant fight To fill the void in us, to heal the space But nothing seems to work, no matter the pace. I too hear your cries every night The whispers of your prayers of How you try to deny our fate But life doesn't work that way. :( Time may heal wounds, but it won't erase The memories we made, the love we couldn't replace I'll hold on to mine, You hold on to yours. For in them, our love remains, a love that won't fade in vain You must stay strong forever in Christ That This all be for His glory unfold Beyond the hills of this void untold Awaits the grace that was foretold. Ah! Countless writings sent over the years. Some of joy and some of sorrow That was life, Ah how sweet and joyful But, this my love might be the last. The last drop of my sanity Before life robs even this away My only choice is being strong, Find strength in Psalm 34:18 I know more of how you feel The shattered pieces cuts your sole. Was the shattering not enough? Oh thief of our joy! Tears don't dry no matter how I try I wish I could turn back time, to the good old days The definition of sorrow is not strong enough Walking dead is what it is, a heart that lost all purpose. I longed to hold your hand one last time But when i grasp its only in air This river between us today I hope may run dry one day. Farewell...

Not every love story has a happy ending, Our love is proof of that. Memories linger, a bittersweet refrain, Echoes of what we had, now lost in pain. The laughter, tears, and moments shared, Haunt me still, a love that's not spared. Time can't heal the wounds, nor fade the scars, Our love story, a reminder of what went wrong, from the very start.

Our Love Story
It was a short and bright love-story. I’d fit it easily in simple couple lines. It was complete: the waterfall and whirlblast, The soulful look, and sighs just days and nights. But it’s all gone, or it was never happened, Those love confessions, tremblingly for good. The flowers wilted and rhetoric fully vanished The very moment, when the dawn became selfhood. I bear all in mind: that dawn and bench. You stroked my hand and you were flatly silent. I understood it whole. And bade you farewell. And you went out without a word. You didn’t keep in mind. The story ended on that sandy beach, In that soft breeze and in those silken waves. And now there’re only melancholic memories, The hollow promises and sea taste on my lips.

Sea taste on my lips
Our love is like threads of songket and sari— woven slowly, without haste, brightly colored though from different hands. You come from a land where language and movement are like dance, coloring days with spices and golden light. I grew up on a land quiet and simple, where the wind knows the scent of warm rice and the first rain. Our cultures are not patterns easily woven, sometimes your threads don’t match my weave, and the colors of my customs feel strange to your eyes. Yet we choose to keep weaving— not because it’s easy, but because we know— beauty can be born from knots of difference. Though we have never met, your words reach my evening window, and my steps toward your land are carried not by promises, but by hopes I plant in the woven gaps of maps, while you too nurture courage each night, when screens become the only bridge between us. Sometimes we quarrel, like two folk songs crossing rhythms. But love isn’t about being the same, it’s about understanding without changing each other’s base note. You never ask me to be different, and I never wish to erase what you bring. We only embrace each other, two souls from two lands, who believe— even threads of songket and sari that differ can weave beautifully— if embroidered into a heart that welcomes them.

SARI AND SONGKET, OUR STORY⟡˖࿔
Never knew such kind of pain can exist in my heart Until you came in my life o my dreamy princess!!! My heart fell in love with you but you taught my heart To suppress the feelings without offering any healings My feelings for you are so deep, so blue, so true, so divine and inexplicable. But the work of suppressing such feelings without any healings is really heart breakable Whenever I saw you, I found me rejoicing because I could listen to my heart beat beating for you o my dreamy princess I found my mind thinking about you, found my soul dancing with you and my body leaning towards you. You are the most beautiful girl to me on this planet OO my dreamy princess Your smile,, your eyes,, straight away synchronized with my heart and created a divine relation with you And my heart started following you OO my dreamy princess!!! You are the one whose face comes to my mind whenever i listen to any romantic song.... You are the one with whom i want to walk when i walk alone... You are the one with whom i can compare no one oo my dreamy princess!!! But slowly slowly, i realised that it was only my heart who was in love and your heart had no feelings of love. I had a deep sea of feelings for you and my heart always kept on assuming.. that there must be at least a small pond of feelings in your heart as well. But my heart betrayed me oo my dreamy princess and now the pain of this hurting heart is so deep , so blue... that it is trying various things for forgetting you.. I always was the follower of heart . But now I say to everybody “NEVER FOLLOW YOUR HEART” Because following my heart took me to the false illusion.. Where there was no destination. And when i realized this fact , I was left to travel the backward heartbreaking journey alone.. which is full of pain and thorns. I learnt to love from you But I couldn’t learn how to forget.. And this is the my regret.

in a sense my innocence has brought about some strange events your unabashed sinfulness my cute, careful religiousness a surprising synthesis in a sense, was my innocence a recompense for your bitterness? i sought your soul with reverence from your tenderness, my mind undressed a haunt old as some sacred texts of a pure and honest impetus our pride found a submissiveness my naivete, your diligence thanks to our collective dissonance a love made to be infamous

a surprising synthesis
It wrapped her head, covering her auburn hair in golden yellows and bright blues. When the wind stole it away, I raced after it, hoping to catch up to the breeze. The red and orange leaves traced its path as it flew through the brisk autumn air. My fingers barely brushed the fabric, but the current brought it to the branches overhead. The air carried it to a high bough above our heads, hanging it on a branch with care. There it hung, beside the glimmering yellow leaves of the tree, swaying like one of them. I reached towards the sky to retrieve it before the breeze could lift it away once more. She caught up with me then, laughing at our attempts to rescue her bright yellow scarf. Looking up at the thin piece of fabric, I offered to climb the tree though I didn’t want to. Her infectious giggles at the proposed idea graced my ears like a soft, sweet song. That music lulled my once-lonely mind into sleepy peace and serenity for the rest of my days.

180/33 "The Scarf"
I went outside, and met a black queen that ruled over all of my thoughts – hoping she wasn’t a bad dream. But she'd still love me despite my arrogance; my pivoting thoughts that swing along my many moods swings. Fair enough; she’d understand me better, knowing I wasn’t treated fair enough, under the same sun that makes her skin fair as much. Still is there a woman of your dreams when you barely feel awake; the grass is always greener from a distance, but your eyes can never catch the green of their snakes. And whenever I tell a short girl a good short joke, she looks at me to keep it brief – but if I said it in short: a laugh from a girl, is a guy’s idea of knowing he can get a taste of those lips. But wouldn’t we love to dream in sweet relief, while I find it less attainable when someone has me losing sleep. Please give me my peace that comes with my piece: a piece of mind, a piece of spark to a piece of love. But when I met the queen, I never thought it would come with love – but she never felt a spark, paying no mind to me. We were just two strangers in town, walking on two different paths, who happened to glance at each other, only once!

Black Queen
The love story ends, The tale is finished, Their paths now diverge, Separate ways taken. Who cares for the other? Who cherishes the bond? A fleeting day spent together, A smiling morning, A humming evening, Yet the night falls— Darkness remains. Bitterness lingers, Resentment over trivial things, Fragments of what once was. Now, the search begins again— Another hand to hold, A new companion to find, To fill the void, To start another story.

Laying still on my side of the bed Won’t open my eyes, won’t turn my head Our pages lie defeated on the floor Kisses on the wall but ink on the door Love I refuse to share with new And so remain reserved for you. It gives me peace, we tasted forever Cuddled to dreams, before we severed My heart smiles only to your touch Your empty gloves I tightly clutch As we twirl the days into blank unknown I sing our song, ‘cause it’s ours to own I sing and I cry Teardrops burning dry ‘Till I finally dare look At the ashes of our book We pick up our pens in slow-motion glory And continue to write, each our own story Our hearts beating on to the rhythm of our metronome Now, I must leave, but I won’t forget home.

she's got shadows in her hair and scorpions hide in there. her eyes drip venom, incapacitating all she glances upon, turning a summer sunrise into decay. she's got shadows in her hair and scorpions move beneath the surface. her lips skitter, chasing down and breaking apart even the sturdiest of mountains. she's got shadows in her hair and scorpions crawl under skin. her teeth gnaw, eroding all she touches, turning a broken promise into gossamer strands. she's got shadows in her hair and scorpions dance within her skull. her chest heaves, filling up and emptying out the horizon. she's got shadows in her hair and scorpions bleeding throughout. her heart roars, shaking all she treads on, turning a lifetime into dust. she's got shadows in her hair and I no longer care about the scorpions. her hands shake, holding my immortal coil in a death grip. she's got scorpions in her hair.

all the scorpions in her hair
witnessing the cracks in your feeble armor tears a whole through a heavy heart. I can feel the scars upon your broken coil and the salt flats below your eyes. he spilled the blood of his bitter fists upon that cardboard frame the world calls your body. he cleaved at the brittle coal that is your aching bones, yet you still carry yourself upon the winter winds. he spat in the ocean of your soul. yet you hold on tight to his arm, as if he is the anchor that keeps you safely in the bay. and all you need do is obey. fearful of the storm beyond, of the deep blue of endless possibility... you stay within the confines of a jagged little shoreline. he is the rope aroung your nape and you can't help but hang yourself.
