a fool
Shinta Dec 2014
the skyline in her eyes,
painting the silhouettes of the buildings she has always loved across the room,
giving her an unusual feeling, more like.. a memory
memories, that she almost forgot it hurts, but she enjoyed it anyway
until she looked down and could never look at the same street ever again
moments later, a whisper can be heard, from her, quoting her favorite poetry
she said, “i never paid much attention to abandoned buildings until i became one”

envy

i envy

the cup of coffee that gets to kiss your sleepy lips awake every cold and bitter morning

i envy

the blanket that gets to keep your body warm from the damp cold white winter

i envy

the fireworks that gets your attention every single time it burst out in the sky upon you

i envy

the old lady from the bakery that gets to be greeted "good morning" everytime you walk past through

i envy

everything that gets to be with you

not really a poet
Shinta Mar 2014
sometimes,
we don't need to look for another grip to not be blown off.
      don't need to impose to be in silent as if you do not care with the flow.
      don't need to pretend like you forget about the gravity.

the direction,
  it could have carried them all to a much better place.
but unfortunately,
                       we just do not know if it's the best.

so, where (and how long) would you anchor?
