Paper Heart Poet Jul 2020
reflected on trees
my shadow is a giant
waving on the bark
Paper Heart Poet Jul 2020
wild flowers blooming
like there is no quarantine
while we’re in mind jail
Paper Heart Poet Jul 2020
it’s only the flower fallen off
that makes sense
not the tasks of work
that lead nowhere

it’s only the eyes resting
on each other calmly
that makes sense
not the rush of a boring day
that act like important

it’s only the expression
by creating myself with art
that makes sense
not the forced knowledge
i can’t use
that’s told it is needed

it’s only the memory
of mom
appearing as real as her love was
that makes sense
not the fake sorries and words
that are said
when they don’t know better
Paper Heart Poet Jul 2020
i love
the darkness
in you
it’s the most real
thing about you
Paper Heart Poet Jul 2020
Nocturnal animals
Live next to us
Ignoring our sleep
And well-being
Blue uniforms
Knock on door
Come night
Time for winding down
But my brain is alert
Afraid to fall asleep
Paper Heart Poet Jul 2020
rain is
drinking tea
in the company
of my wrinkled soul
Paper Heart Poet Jun 2020
a pair of
mismatched socks
we wear each other
mixing colours

an item from a
second hand shop
more unique than  
the same new ones  

only we see the
rainbow on an old
black and white
television
