How lucky I am to exist
In this universe, next to you.
Surely I wouldn't be so lucky
In my other lives too.
With absolute certainty,
You tell me that's not true.
'As long as we're both alive,
I will gravitate to you.'

for the hell of it (for the plot). a poem.
i see your ghost everywhere I go
an empty seat in the back of my car
missing from your spot on the couch
in my house
in my heart
i see you fade in and out of being
flicker in my eyes, taunting me
sometimes I pretend you're there
i smile toward the seat in the back of my car
but it always fades
because there's little to smile at
when you're no more than a ghost
a flickering memory
and an ache in my heart
-k.c.

Batane ki baat nahi hai, Par... batane dogi kya?
Ishq bepanah hai tumse, Ek bar... jatane dogi kya?
Tum titli ho, pahad ho, Aasmaan ho mera.
Ek dibiya me, sindoor rakha hai mere pass.
Tum... lagane dogi kya? –Zakir Khan

a bit of advice:
order dessert before dinner whenever you can. get the really rich option, the oreo cheesecake or chocolate mouse. lick warm, melty whipped cream off the backside of your spoon, scoop the chocolate clean off the plate, sit back and sigh and lament that you might have not saved enough room for dinner, without an ounce of regret, and then go on to finish the bread and oil and your entire bowl of pasta too. look utterly confused anytime anyone brings up their new diet, or how they need to work out before dinner, or that they are just soooo bloated, or how they just need to lose that last 5 pounds. act as if it is the most absurd thing you have heard that someone would even consider cutting calories or passing on warm cookies fresh out of the oven or ignoring the pleasure of eating a whole bag of pink starbursts in one sitting. picture yourself at age three, often. think about a time before dance classes or diet culture or tiny runway models or tumblr of 2012 got it’s hands on you. remember the way your belly rolls looked extra cute in your purple butterfly swimsuit with watermelon juice covering your sticky salt water fingers, braids wildly unkempt from summertime play (and then remember that nothing has changed with age except that now you have a blue butterfly swimsuit instead of purple). and when you can’t show up for yourself to feed this adult body that has to face the world, feed yourself at three years old, giggly and chubby, sweet talking in hopes for a second popsicle. let them know that they can have three popsicles if they want, and that tonight, we will even order our dessert before dinner.

You couldn't have told us apart,
Me and him.
We sit in the same obnoxious way when we're alone,
Hold our phones the same way.
But I'm light on my feet,
He's faster in a sprint.
I draw circles on the ground with my toes
He does it with his heels.
The night drizzles over the side of his neck,
The exact colour of my eyes.
The sun slips like ichor on my wrist,
The exact colour of painted specks in his eyes.
"I would not put anything above you,"
We tell eachother
"I would be unknown if you ceased to exist."
There's blood in my eyes,
Blood that we carelessly slather over each other's clothes.
"You won't die, you won't, you won't."
For if you die and I live,
I will bend the world on its knees
And beg for you.

scrawny horses
a dusty trophy
it used to be a home
leafless tree
empty swings
it used to be a home
running children
laughing parents
we called it our home
scared children
controlling parents
now our lonely home
