SELF DISCOVERIES
The line that separates romantic and platonic feelings
Has always been very thin,
Very blurred
Believing it was supposed to feel like so
But when my best friend told me
she's never thought of girls in that way...
Something shifted
I realized
Under the influence of heartbreak,
The guise of embarrassment,
Blurred and thin lines
Are never straight.

I Posted a New Short Story - Discoveries
My latest piece is too long the poem section - so it's in "Short Stories."
It's called "discoveries"
I could shorten it - but why? *shrug*
Here's the link:

Is There Really a Reason
Do all things that happen to us,
Have an undiscovered reason behind them?
Or some things are just meant to be,
The way they are?
When a little child slips and falls while playing,
Does the reason behind him falling, ever bother him?
Or perhaps, when a man is fighting life's toughest battles,
Does he

and the taste of unknown fruits
the rough-skinned oblong bud
the smooth texture of the pyramidal shell?
now without a palate like a dead Pallas
or like all dead things
who did not absorb the taste of distant fruits
for example the apples that bloomed on Sirius
and its unthinkable taste of universe
as far away as the gidean persimmon in algeria
like gauguin's

Discoveries In Life
Every step
we learn.
Every step
we discover.
The things we never knew,
thought we would never know,
there it is !
Because we searched.
in amazement in front of us
was hidden all this time,
hidden only from those
uninterested.
But those among us
wanted
before we depart,
one more thing we learned,
one more step - we are
wiser. older.

Hoping For Discoveries
A wee lad, tresses from a day's play tousled
Squinted up at a cavernous sky to find
Where the moon and stars were twinkling tonight
Mapping out bears and lions in his pint-size mind
Time's passed, he now employs a telescope
His stellar scientific maps delivering hope
Of discoveries to change the way grown men

Discoveries
A child put her small hand
in my big hand.
Trusting me to show her
the world.
As we walked, she suddenly knelt
and stared with wonder
at the ant
crawling along the ground.
She put her little hand
back in my big hand.
And we continued
so I could show her
the world.
She froze and looked up
As the sound of far-off honking
heralding a flock

DISCOVERIES
Along a summer street crammed to bursting point
By an indifference of brick walls -
I come across a suddenness of dandelions
On a bulding site after the rain falls.
A sea beach filled by desertion
And rock pools half-buried,
With a rusty shell casing abandoned
In retreat by ranks serried.
Rain and sea offer nothing
New, merely reveal near-forgotten
Implants

Discoveries Made Too Late
upon seeing the potted flowers in the store
so beautiful, so seemingly original in all their
majestic aura, flirting with all the senses,
taken in by the smell & aroused by the touch of the
petals,
the onlooker wants nothing more than to take the
flowers home & make them their own,
so that they can place them on the windowsill
in order
