Whistle of our blues,
Carnations, riddles, non-existent clues;
All lead me to you.
Took you long enough to come into view,
Let this story brew,
Oh, my ardent wishes—at last—came true.
coming back after not writing for months and already talking about love is not on my 2025 bingo card, fr.

He smiles at me
May I take your order please
Cappuccino, latte, or me
Frothy steam
Coffee kisses daydream
Red lipstick blotch on the coffee cup
Thank you
Your welcome
He will always be my special barista. I will always love him.

"A pen"
 Aug 23 Syd

I have a pen and it doesn't write very well.
It doesn't capture all the things I wanna tell.
Whenever I want to write about my happiness in words.
I end up writing about all of my misery that occurs.
Whenever I am sad and want to rant about my feeling.
It reminds me of a time where I would find this situation healing.
Even though it doesn't write well.
Nor capture the things I wanna tell.
I still use it to write.
It's like a bumpy road that leads to a beautiful sight.
It doesn't have a mouth nor a ear.
But it still expresses my thoughts like it could hear.
It always write about me not someone else.
It's surprising how it can know me better then myself.
The pen that I have might not write very well.
But it still expresses all the emotions that I wanna tell

Each year the weight accumulates, sadness cuts deeper, life feels more crushing, tears never cease.

You're in my heart
Like a childhood memory,
a golden sunset.
Temper turns temples to dust
Temper brings about unjust
Washes up a stupid storm
Smart decisions not the norm
I, me, the biggest dummy
When the temper strikes in me
