Du är lika vacker som en morgonsol

Din ikea-blåa hud,
dina rosenröda kinder i januarikylan.

Ditt leende när du ser mig,
dina blickar som du ger mig.

De besegrar mig.

Jag älskar dig.

ikea

pärlgråa vindar
stryker köld över kinder
en film spelas upp
en man som är en skugga
visar hemvägen

Careless

We are the opposite observers
of eachother’s eyes

We are the opposite endings
to eachother’s lives

Awning

I'm one hundred yards away from a lens into the world

And you are one hundred yards deep into that careless extension

I died over a hundred times reaching for your empty palms thinking they were blank slates

But your fingers remain shoulder to shoulder, standing at attention

Always pointing downward
as the awning to these weeping sleeves

The Love, The Fear and The Future

A cold appartment
Eyes spread across my face
Centering everything beautiful in the holes of her pupils
Charged and ready to explode

An impasse with an endless concrete wall
Wrapping ourselves into the swallowing umbra
Concealing us from the world into cocoons of black hides.

Awaiting as a resonating swan song in the soundless skull
I am nothing but harm.

Unconditional Guilt

My heart is choked up all the time but I rarely cry anymore

I'm just listening for breaths or the flicking of a blade

Waking up in the middle of nowhere from the noise of nothing

My room for long minutes in the dark
on feet that unwillingly awakens you

All the heat is in my ears
All the weight is inside of me

— The End —
