HOPE
Dashes as same as the midnight bird!
It doesn't stay long,
Yet keeps you awake
But it come and goes,
And leave you running after it,
Because we can never be on time.

HOPE
Only your absence,
Taught me the significance of time
For in the presence,
I only have recollections hidden within my heart,
Not your availability.
Trying to get my  .                                across
.
.
i live with myself
in the same house under
the same roof. I changed the
locks  on the doors
then  shut  me  out
and kept me closed
                           in by throwing out            the keys
Oopsie daisy
I get a little clumsy
when it comes to love
it gets a little crazy
I slip and trip
I flip and stall
I blunder the kiss
and stutter and all
but if all you ever
utter is this
“I love YOU”
just hold me please

…before I fall

Healer
I could never judge you on your absence.
For that glimpse of rarest blood moon was sufficient for a blind like me.
Sitting on the side
of the eclipse
we’re hanging off it’s edge
I’m thinking of you too
dangling off your ledge
I’ll be counting
to number three
and then, I will let go
So I can catch you if you fall
if you count on me
and follow

Written on my soul
written May 17th, 2021

Some poems
are written
with pen and paper
in the light of day.

Other poems
are written on my soul
when the night is so thick
no light will pierce it.

They all come from the same place
and must be written
either easily or through hard labor
with trembling and tears
ink the color of blood
waiting for dawn
to reveal what was written
the night before.

Often I am scared to look
and fold it away
to look at another day
when I am feeling stronger.

What was written
on your soul last night?
