Scars may fade, but they last forever
-Bridgett Devoue

My love for you
is no less
than a scar on my skin.
Some believe
it makes my skin
look ugly.
Others think
like me,that
this one scar, makes me “me”
It’s a scar
I happily bear
on my raw dark brown skin.
But one day,
it starts to fade aways,
just like that.
Then you turn back
and give me your impish smile
and it resurfaces.
The deeper it goes
the stronger my love gets,
they go hand-in-hand.
It’s a story
I will tell
if it ever reaches its end.
It may fade again
with time
so don’t look back again.
Because this time
I don’t want you, scargiver
I want a healer.

Chemistry between people is the strangest science of all. -BRIDGETT DEVOUE

The guy in my college,his eyes were brown, like mine.
But his mind was shallow, unlike mine.

The school crush’s habits matched
with my daily tasks, but during chemistry,
he broke my flask, so I broke his heart.

My third boyfriend’s disinterest in partying
was too much for this girl interested in one-night flings.

The last one tried all poses
guns and bullets, but never hearts and roses.

The recent one, is soft as a cloud
In the blankets of innocence, he shrouds.
He writes, like I do.
He reads, like I do.
He loves, like I do.
But he hates, which I don’t do.
Still I fell, in the abyss.
Maybe, sometimes
people are not to be analysed
or judged.
Maybe, sometimes
compatibility is to be
thrown in the waste bin.
Because once the hearts connect, logic fails.
