The Fantasy of Love
“Though I know he loves me, tonight my heart is sad; his kiss was not so wonderful as all the dreams I had.” - Sara Teasdale
You see it in romantic movies, and
when you are young, nothing seems so awesome
as kissing's bliss or walking hand in hand.
You dream of it, wishing it would blossom
before too long...

A Remedial of Love
A Remedial of Love
When silence carved its name in stone,
And hearts grew cold where warmth had shone,
A whisper rose from broken ground—
A balm in words, a gentler sound.
It wasn't grand, nor made for show,
Just steady light in afterglow.
In kindness slow and patience deep,...

Wedding poem Wedding VowsMay we forever be lovers,
May we forever be friends,
And should we hurt each other,
May we quickly make amends.
May we enjoy our passion,
But never let compassion die,
Thinking in selfless terms as we,
Never emphasising I.
May we forever be soul-mates,
May our love eternally last,
May the food of love sustain us,
May we never have to fast.
May we use each...

Forever And Always, For All EternityInfinite love
Has come to an end
The white dove?
Its neck has a bend
What was promised forever
Did not last
Continued for never
And came in last
Eight months
To be continued
Eight months
You promised no issue
You promised forever
You promised always
You promised to never
But you did anyways
I cannot be mad
I could not do that to you
But boy am I sad
To watch what we...

It's not loveYou hated yourself,
but adored his light.
Told stories of him,
while erasing yours.
How dare you?
Go. Gather your pieces.
Return whole.
Then call it love....

Same spirit, different bodiesWhat were the chances?
Even if just one percent,
I would redo the calculations,
Till my body turns to ashes.
The times we spent together—
Were the ones that made me fall in love with existance, with you.
Even when we're not on good terms,
If the universe gave me another chance,
I would.
However things aren't the same,
Like seasons,
The summer left and winter...

The Knight And His LanceHello, my final words,
sucked into a snow swirl
but I stutter and look up,
and see wings rapidly
take off and flutter,
from a cloudy cup
Tell me darkest secrets
of the black butterfly
that has came close to death.
We don't need another chance
but the cherished memories,
of a knight and the lance,
his lady and last breaths.

Giver of My NameMy lover’s lips drip words of secret hours
Wherein our dreams make love to sweetest songs
Hymns to our bodies, bathes in nectar showers
Slick on the tongue to taste; ours all life long.
‘Forever’s on our mouths, in fingers kept
Oaths to the rising sun, our bedded vows
Seduced and consummated here we slept
Beneath our bough that shields from...

Oh it's happening againIn this moment,
I see visions of bed sheet caught in slow motion,
I see crinkles in corners of eyes and smiles that turn into giggles,
I see screaming fingers tips up and down my skin,
I see something new to brush my fingers through,
I see him grazing his facial hair on my upper thighs,...

danicaHey Danica,
I don’t know why I’m addressing you like this
as if these words are meant to be opened by your hands
though they’re more like a whisper I’m giving to the air
Maybe starting with your name just made it easier
to admit I needed to speak at all
There’s nothing pressing I have to say
no grand truth waiting...

Natural LifeYour dress today looked beautiful
So beautiful on you
I saw it when you first walked in
What others said was true
You wear your clothing oh so well
I love to see your choice
And something else I love as much
Is the sound of your sweet voice
The things that make me notice
Are what things set you apart...

Not so platonicYellow in your eyes—
seemed bright, but honeyed words didn’t feel right.
Letters that questioned truth and dare,
asked other girls—
green-eyed, now I won’t spare.
Engraved in my head, the lesson’s clear:
Don’t forget.
Player, player—why would he care?
Saw those chats, I won’t spare.
A green flag in your eyes
But I fear the truth hides in disguise
You call me dear, so...
