“honor the friendships that allow you to pick up from where you last left off, regardless of how long it’s been since you connected. the friendships that survive hiatuses, silences and space. those are the connections that never die.”

Spine
Let them tattoo your spine with scars,
let the universe spit in your mouth,
be a feral canvas for the colors
of suffering and joy in the light.
These warm creatures,
panting and breathing fog,
live and die too fast
to see how these redwoods came to be,
the oldest gods lying down
so we may cross the pale river.

For the days you feel you look so unattractive and displeasing. May you try to look into my eyes and make it your mirror.

‘friends’ falls clumsily from my lips
and a gaping silence follows
as I describe what you are to me
as though that can erase
the times we rolled breathless in your bed
and the times you swore we were more than nothing

Everything Hertz
I feel all alone among billions of voices trying to make it
the punchlines of life have left me with more bruises than I'd ever count
I don't want to stop but I'm losing the courage to go on this way

You came back to me. You did. Even when I have pushed you away. Why are you so weak? Why are you so obsessed? The idea of true love and soul mates are just an illusion for poor souls to dive into. And even though I know this, I still would like to see you drown. And still … you dive into me.

sometimes i forget i have feelings
sometimes i forget that other people have feelings
sometimes i have to remind myself not to be so cold
sometimes i dont give a fuck
sometimes i do
and the times i realize i have feelings
it's usually already too late.
-always a fuck up

When words keep on being used, it loses its charms. What more when you keep on saying you love someone but you dont act on it? What more when you say you love someone but the receiver doesn't feel it?
Words and actions should go hand in hand.

“patience is the greatest gift anyone could ever give you during your healing, giving you as much time as you need to walk your own path without giving unsolicited shortcuts, letting you return back home to yourself as many times as you need until you feel like you again.”

Would
After innocence,
who by brave decent,
who by fire?
The wasp and the fig
would be the favorites.
A common magic
like the spark from the city bus
with overhead power lines.
I still wouldn't know what they knew.
I would haunt their sins
like a witch without a coven
to put my body back
with the wasp,
but we were even then
already in the underworld.

Blade
I can pull
myself
out of
the facade
just
in time
for suburban
lights to rise
and show
reflections
of condemned buildings
on the flattened
edge,
then hang
back and peer
into the middling
procession,
before
the glimmering
crescent -
steady,
unyielding to
simpering
deformities

Gone to Me
You’re not gone to the world
just gone to me.
A whole country,
missed calls
and unread messages
between us.
Red Hot Chili Peppers
still remind me of you.
I close my eyes,
crank it up,
and ride it out.
Singing a little louder
on the words you change.
If i focus hard enough
it’s almost like
you’re still there.
