falling leaves travel like rain on your cheeks when you ride the bike across the storm, they twirl and line up the road, letting you know the arrival of fall. the buildings are catching the last glimpse of the Sun, kites with shapes like sea creatures are flying across the sky, everything falls into smallerContinue reading “Great cormorant”

happy
if somehow, i could erase all my pain away would i still be me today? if i stopped singing the songs would i forget what music looks like? if i turned a blind eye would i be happy, finally? t.l. i wish to be more like you.
please, don’t go

a piece of peace
i can still taste iron in my mouth thoughts never escape, unless you’re dead like a cockroach, no one gives sympathy for the one who destroys things and then asks for mercy. i know now that a lost puppy will always miss its first owner even when he’s living in a new house. that iContinue reading “a piece of peace”
sharks
the water is shallow you saw a big grey shadow cutting through the ocean like lightning, like a suicidal thought you tried to tell yourself “a dangerous situation is only what you make of it” so you started treading waters run as fast as you could but there’s nothing pushing you back up you keptContinue reading “sharks”
Poem number 297
i have stopped counting the times i started crying for absolutely no reason i looked outside and saw these familiar yet strange faces faces of dogs going on a ride faces of couples in love faces of people inside the bright windows faces of people talking in the cafe at night faces of everyone, butContinue reading “Poem number 297”
