Cherry
I write my ‘i’s differently now —your letters etched themselves into my blood I eat everything with chili that burning sting is close enough to your kiss I abandoned the blade. You’d be proud— though only because we meet every night, dream or not Why do you haunt me, why? but still, I tail behind your cherry mirage Lost in this desert, I crawl beneath...

A city will swallow you whole the suburbs will chew on you for a bit our world's gone off its bloody blue axis. We were born to thrive and not just exists given mustard seed souls to nurture into bloom... there are those that live to poke and twist silk from the soul of the cherry wood loom. Head for the evergreens...

Your Hand in Mine
Under the cherry blossoms, we stand, Your hand in mine, soft as the sand. The world is loud, yet here it’s still, Our hearts in tune, our spirits thrill. We giggle softly, sharing a look, Like secret pages in a book. Your laugh, a melody so sweet, It makes my heart skip every beat. The way you smile, the way time flies, I see...

Premium Member Two Fine Words Like Cherry Preserve
My name is printed in a column, Politely, like a queue, A school crocodile line. Two words in staining ink. My fingertips, They have turned black, Tracing lines of a curling print, Prints burned away by fire, Off a silent roasting child, Fat, bean-ish, and blonde. I saw the advent of my article, My little contribution, Beside the colossus of stocks, My two fine words, Dwarfed by the daily...

Cherry Red
Cherries stain her fingers bright, Deep and dark as midnight wine. She pops them slow between her lips, Her smile lazy, soft, divine. The window's cracked to summer air, The city sighing, fast asleep. She smokes and laughs, her lashes low, Her secrets folded warm and deep. The cigarette burns slow and thin, Forgotten in her careless hand; I lean to kiss the cherry taste And...

Premium Member My Cherry Tree
Quiet it stands, the cherry tree, lushed in dreams so tenderly. Each branch whispers a breath of spring, As though it hides a song to sing. Petals drift like fragrant snow, Softly where the breezes go. For a moment, the season stays, Then gently slips into the haze. Beneath its shade, time rests awhile, Carving...
