Poem: #52poetry IV

Never Knew



It is vivid
It pounds too hard
it could burst blood

It tightens
breathing is hard
in all of a sudden

Tears won’t stream
Voice won’t cry
because these aren’t it

Poem: #52poetry III

Valerie



Wrapped bar with rice
Is a very crispy chocolate
Separated from the rest
By the ivories and ebony

This solid over dark rubber
Petite and skin that shines
I work not on the weekends
Not even once you got showered

Sometimes I go out by myself
And I leave you on your own
Dusty to the ever-changing wind
Got drizzled over and no wipes

Valerie how long I’ve been gone?
Not sprinkling you with snowy bubbles
and placing bread scented wax in a jar
Still not yet set you for a saloon

I favour travelling with you
Only through the day since
the night blinds my two eyes
So today we got to be leaving


Where Marigold dropped the cotton candy

Poem: #52poetry II

Lazy



Woke up to a
               hungry tummy

Think of a tiny can
               bought last night

In that small shop
               of small things

After the trip took
               the bouncy self

The tiny can
               was in the corner

Uncapped the tiny can
               of brown wafer rolls

Ate a couple and
               danced to the beat

Put the tiny can
               back in the corner

Wanting to keep
               for sisters later

Then, ate cookies
               of black teddies

POEM: #52Poetry


Dark Awakening



It was a rainy day
When you took my fears away
While it poured on the road
Washed the ache singing heart

Look what you have done
Got me chasing all the sea waves
And of the aesthetic ocean words
When you whispered beads of rain

Do tell me when you’re leaving
Will you call on me when
The turbulent sea hits? Knowing
I never brought an umbrella

Oh rain, I must love you
Why else would I long for you?
You compel me out of my mind
Waking me up from my sleeps

And I know too much.
Too much rain wakes the flood
If I ever the flood drowns me
There’s no shame I
have
loved
you.
