[rhymingtherapy]

a welcoming light

waits alone

on treacherous shores,

beckoning with lambent fingers

through overcast skies,

a symbol of hope—

defying the uncertainty

of turbulent times

to guide the lost home.

did you hear my heart beating for you today? I miss your lips brushing my skin in a thousand places, every kiss a seed. all the empty space is filled with flowers and they're beautiful, but I wish you never left. I wasn't ready to become a field of flowers. we’re strong together, but I’m also so weak for you.

Every place without you is lost.

"my mandarina" by @suntara - do not repost

meet me in the back, my mandarina

let's live in lost colours tonight

spend constellations undressing

every similie this song has to offer

one day we'll have our own

tangerine corvette and double doors

I'll tattoo my secrets between my fingers and

you can find fragments of my love

in the peel of half eaten oranges

let's runaway from these

runaway rundown towns

be my world, my inconsequential,

my ones, my twos, my eights

let's pretend we're shadow puppets

bound to a black and white

let's pretend this convenience store

is a ballroom

bound to a refraction

I'm terminally ill with the human condition,

this heartbeat highway has nothing on

our rundown tangerine truck

this world has nothing on

the bag of oranges in the back

on us, on forever, on cloud nine

and ten and eleven and twelve

want to dance in the rain with me?

when the citylights shift under the

dusty asphalt roads

and building love songs dim

let's keep singing in the car

to that one song

I'd invent all over again (for you)

i love you like a wooden spoon

i love you like a family recipe

you love me like the secret ingredient

a million memories paint my face

and you know every last one

in my mothertongue's missteps

we're terminally ill with rememberence

of friends, foe, flora, fondness, flaws

eight years, a thousand miles away

we make castles out of cardboard boxes today

recycle them tomorrow, take out the trash

feed the cat, give the neighbours their cookbook back

we read out our pretentious poetry

to each other,

whisper them between cardboard windows and

cardboard curtains

we'll take in the universal experiences

between our wor(l)ds

we'll build them cardboard nurseries that will

grow into cardboard bedrooms

we'll raise them as our own,

give them your surname

my eyes, your hands, my smile

we'll make them forever, make them always

do their laundry, feed them oranges

wash the stains from their shadows and

polish their shoes

good morning my mandarina,

i want to read our living room floor with you

like the daily newspaper

I'll find carpet stains from spilled orange juice and

you'll find dents from the weight of

that coffee table your dad gave us long ago

this poem isn't about love,

but love is all over it like

lipstick kisses on collars

fingerprints on flowers, rain on city windows

we're terminally ill with a love that will outlast us

there's never going to be another forever

like this one

there's never going to be another forever

i want to remember like this one

(everyday is a fairytale with you)

in another universe,

where there's no running away

I'll write your name on my palms

and pray till it remembers mine

[heartweary-writing]

I want your picture on a post card,

The back stained with the written promise of,

“Soon, I’ll be with you.”

I keep waiting.

I keep wanting.

Like a child sensing the heavy betrayal that’s only abated by buoyant hope.

But it stings...the oncoming weight that will drop,

already it stings, like the heat on my bare-feet as it sneers off a sidewalk

I wait

I wait, for the postcard to fly away

The ink to fade.

I wait.

J. K. L

[everytimeyousaygoodbye]

Waves and tides, blow out

The candles at midnight

Dandelions and daffodils,

Be my baby please,

Del rey on repeat, phonograph

With wilted flowers beside

Pieces of me, starlight we dance

Tonight, to melancholy, a symphony

Falling in love, falling out of shadows

And dreams..........................

कभी तो, कहीं तो मिलते होंगे यह आसमान और ज़मीन वरना, क्षितीजा ऐ��े ही नज़र आया नहीं करते।

कभी तो, कहीं तो, किसी पहर मिलते होंगे तुम्हारे हमारे ख्वाब वरना, सपनों में आकर लोग ऐसे ही सताया नहीं करते।

Por poco, por casi nada, haces que mi vida se ponga a sonreír ¿Cómo puedo agradecértelo?

Sticking to my body, you follow me everywhere. I see my shadow, sometimes as tall as I'm I see my shadow, sometimes way too bigger than I'm. I see my shadow, always black in color. Sticking to my body, you disgust me. Darkening my ray of happiness, you exist. Never seeming to go away, you cling to my soul. I always see you around, just like a shadow.

not lords, but children

* in a yet stumbling gait walking the plains, the high & byways of our paved paradise

hoping to arrive at an idyllic destination; the place where we  may receive our crowning glory,

storied & retold in scribes & myths.

yesterday, it was made crystal clear to me upon arising when the power failed

& no number of frantic calls, urgent emails, or shouted exhortations to the heavens above could deliver to me - in my trembling hands  the verdict - what i then loathed to hear

& have now learned to love like a long-lost friend adrift at sea, head bobbing above the surface surprisingly, while you’re wading.

manual labor becomes a prime mover a return to Eden - so to speak - where we’re pristine, independent & so forth...

so when we meet & happen to bump into... bring all your longing, that pent-up pressure you’ve lived;

& we can garden together, hand shovels at the ready working our magic in the mulch, or in sandboxes with the buckets - not as lords - but like children at play. * 7/22 - lebuc - not lords, but children

State of the Union

it begins

and ends

with us

hands

touching

bodies

in comfort

a tender

tether

to start

the day

challenges

confronted

endured

overcomed

last light

of the day

last touch

a reminder of

what's most

important

hope renewed

heart healed

somewhere

safe

someone

loved

all in a

world of

our own

making

They say you never really know how much room someone takes up until they’re gone. but I wish I could tattoo the way you whisper my name over and over again, like it’s something you’re convincing the universe to never take away from you. If the ocean had a heartbeat, it’d be you. I love like my heart is hungry for light, and you’re the last star in the sky. darling, I’m not saying that I think we might belong together, but I do know that I’ve lost my heart to your smile in every single one of my lifetimes.

I just want to fall in love, and stay there.

#12 Gratitude

I am thankful for "today." We think that one day can't change alot in our lives but it's not true. From morning sun to evening rains, the breakfast and and tea, the laughter and smiles, every day matters. If everyday of your life is going good then it's a blessing. Be grateful for all that you have today, from morning sun to night stars. Say thank you to the God. Say thank you so all the people you love. Be grateful. Be happy. 🌼💙
