it had ended without beginning
she had a poignant smile -
which he could not fathom
to bring home from work
which he could not fathom

the ruby girl
sad girl
Daddy loves you just
as you love him
Daddy didn't leave
because of you,
you are precious
you know that deep red
stone that rests on everyone's
collarbone, so close to their hearts ?
A ruby they call it ? Yes,
that must be it.
Well, yes, you're a ruby
situated and appreciated gravely by
many who keep promises of
love and intimacy
Picture yourself the centre of
everyone's temple
being the only captivating
anatomy
Ceasing every eyesight
Leaving speechless passerby's
fascinated and yearning to...

show yourself
You obtain a globe of
frequent tendencies and
shattered particles of all
kinds of emotion
This globe, too, appears sensitive
and wreaked with black toxic
substances
So dark and engulfed is this globe
I can barely make out the contents inside
Can I ... Can I use my gentle hands
to wash away this toxic substance ?
Can I be the one to witness you
reveal your heart to me,
your vulnerability,
your broken shield ?
Can I be the one you call your hero ?

she smokes to feel him still
She likes her mornings different
Maybe a little smoke here and there
Not the usual societal way of waking up
to a four-walled room
encrypted with familiar colognes
and stuffy rooms
She wants to wake up to an
old 60s rock band
No tear-stained sheets clothing her
with night sweat-
nothing but her black laced underwear on
Her copper hair dances in light tunes
with the wind
Sitting on a weathering boulder
she smokes on a
cigarette as though
life itself were processed
along with the shitty
substances in it and...

kiss my lips
kiss my neck
kiss the soul that
hungers for just your
poetic lips...

Overwhelming
Do I overwhelm you ?
You're excessively committed to
loving my old boring soul
You whisper in my hair
saying you want to stay this way
with me
Your face lights up at my funny faces,
my anger, my creased lines of focus
You disregard my past and wipe
my tears away and say
"Its gonna be alright"
You read my eyes without my permission,
reading deeper into my nightmares
and subconsciously read them aloud at
night with eyes closed
You recite them.
You think I wouldn't know the
lines to my own nightmares ?...

building houses
I used to tolerate silence
now, the longer you're silent,
the more my wrath burns
inside of me
the more bricks I construct...

I fancy him...
whatever this may be
and whatever this will be
I have come to think that
I am helplessly too far in
he has become a spark to
my flame
and I just hope that all that
will be left in the end,
is anything but ashes...

Strip me bear
Strip me bear
Uncover all my secrets
Splendour in the fact
that I like my coffee
with milk
Smile at every random
move I make in the
hope that you'll find
me helplessly amusing
Strip bear my fears
Collide in battle with
those I cannot fight
by myself
Assure me with a hopeful smile
that all will be okay
Steer me towards a valley
of trust
And playfully splash me with
droplets from the river
In doing so -
Let me strip you
bear of all uncertainties
Uncover all my secrets
Splendour in the fact
that I like my coffee
with milk
Smile at every random
move I make in the
hope that you'll find
me helplessly amusing
Strip bear my fears
Collide in battle with
those I cannot fight
by myself
Assure me with a hopeful smile
that all will be okay
Steer me towards a valley
of trust
And playfully splash me with
droplets from the river
In doing so -
Let me strip you
bear of all uncertainties

Fear
Drunk out of our heads
We wobbled to the nearest bench
down by the stray streets
of our silent city
We laughed freely without shame
Made funny sounds to cheer
Our sad hearts up
Held half-full bottles of Glenfiddich
Forcing our tongues to get
accustomed to the
foreign, bitter taste
When you said "I love you"
we hurried along the dark corners,
laughing still,
And I pretended I wasn't afraid
at the drunk devotion in your voice
You always spoke truth in your drunk state...

Organized Office
I have secluded myself from people
I have managed my emotions in perfect order
There's no litter next to the trash
It's all been cleaned out for future use
So if I do find useless scraps of trash
I won't throw a fit
I'll simply walk over,
Scan its use
And throw it away
I have managed my emotions in perfect order
There's no litter next to the trash
It's all been cleaned out for future use
So if I do find useless scraps of trash
I won't throw a fit
I'll simply walk over,
Scan its use
And throw it away

I let him...
I lay on my side facing him,
Tracing every wrinkle on his face
I let him touch me where my scars have been,
I let him relive my nightmares
Tracing every wrinkle on his face
I let him touch me where my scars have been,
I let him relive my nightmares
