Refilled and Restored

It was late.

I was tired.

All was quiet.

I needed to hear your voice

Giving up

I hate you.
Your blunt way of avoiding me,
in a manner
of the cold state of my coffee.
Your frosty words,
that are more frigid
than your heart.
Where the hell are you?

Drifted

Drifted hearts
beat to a rhythm
of a whistling wind –
not in tune,
but
making noise all the same.
Troubles,
like red pulsating clots
bleed their way
into the stream of my life,

One

One word
to let you down or
out of misery.
One step –
to jump across
or fall in

Blinded

Cattle
set wild,
like gold fishes into the ocean –
wet scales
into unknown waters.
Literally.

Saturday cooking: Nonet

It’s green, zesty orange and yellow,
bright chilli colour on fingers,
inauguration of smells,
aroma in my mouth,

Reminiscing

Dirty taste of wet water.
Don’t remember all the sins I committed,
but
I still dip my toes and run my fingertips
in a shamefully disguised surprise
about
how sinister my past is.

Insomnia: Haiku.

Longing temptations

make eyelids forget to sleep

you are a torment.

Bright Happy Future (Poetry challenge: Easter Bunny)

Warm tickles of the sun,
in egg-yolk-yellow.
I rest my eyelids shut,
as if assuring world around me
that
I’m fine.
Inhale the breeze,
soak in the fluffy clouds,

Bridges

You say,

bridges are built,

so him and her

could cross rivers over,

in order to hold hands,

even for a brief moment.

You say,

these steel and concrete giants

are here to remind us

of all the forced decisions

we took,

because we had to,

as we march across the cement pavements,

reaching destinations,

A to B.

Future. Past. Swapped over

These stories about your life,

they remind me of exclamation marks –

loud sounds with no impact,

just an airless vacuum of preservation’s.

You take me by the hand

and tell me all about your dreams

of our future,

Tripping

Eyes. Closed.
Mouth. Not.
Neither are legs.
Hands. Locked.
Together with yours.
Above us.
Smells. Intensified.
Movements. Quicker.
Than the heart rate.
Lover-like. Affairs.
Animal-like. Actions.
Us. Lusting.
Over each other.
With no. Happy end.
To finish off. With.
