I see
the men
in my
life as
good but 
as trailers 
for the 
next soon
to be 
released upcoming 
blockbuster attraction 
grab popcorn 
it’s sure
to be 
a thriller 

One’s value 
is never 
measured by
success but
rather the 
mistakes made
for those 
are the 
font of 
our baptism 

I want 
to kiss
the lips
I know 
and not
the lips
I don’t 
is this 
then what 
they mean 
by missing
I’m missing 
the kissing 
that’s all 

A book
once read
though cherished 
can never 
be read
again with 
the same 
awe and 
intensity but 
rather becomes
a thing 
of comfort 
a blanket 
bound between 
its covers 

Psst said the 
sun to sky
let’s play a
trick on moon
sure what’s up 
I’m not rising
let’s see what 
she will do 
haha said sky
and so moon
waited around patiently 
for sun to 
rise for sun
to push up
and moon to 
go down on
the celestial seesaw
but none came 
and sky now 
feeling bad decided 
to make the 
day cloudy so 
that the world 
would never see 
the moon’s tears
