  • eyes

    My brother told me in a dream that I have his eyes.
    I guess I do, but I never noticed it.
    I think about the way he said it,
    faced cocked to the side, sitting at a restaurant
    where my mother once took a video of us,
  • Insert Me In Your Life

    Insert me in your life when you want, I'll wait patiently
    Ignore me until you need another performer in your show
    And I'm the most experienced one there is
    I'm always happy to play the role of your love
  • For my best friend

    Flecks of light dance within your eyes,
    gray or blue or green, always changing
    with the seasons, with your mood,
    with the shade of the flourescents
    with your eccentric thrifted clothes,
  • Does anyone think of me?

    my voice is carried away by the breeze,
    whispers of the friendship that never blossomed
    of the love of the boy i can't have.
    these words fall apart
    slowly 
    sink under the ground
    because nobody cares
    nobody realizes
  • By star

    In the darkest of nights

    In the darkest of nights
    when I lie awake,

    blanket of sky,
    all I want to see are flowers
    blooming and trees
    bursting with soft green leaves.

    wrap your laced-up fingers around my throat like you don’t want to breathe,

    hold my pupils in your palms. do you want to smile?

    amnesia. the brain doesn’t like the watercolour poem of my skeletal frame,

  • Dinner With You

    I only ever came here for the fortune cookies 

    I don't know if you can tell 

    when I stare at the menu 

    under shiny plastic with a red rim 

    when I glance

  • Lilac

    I bring my nose close to 

    the Lilac

    as I smell it's like I'm smelling a universe of

    peaceful trickling streams,

    birds softly singing,

  • In that Field

    It never happened

    that everything was beautiful and nothing hurt

    but if it did it would have been

    lying in the grass

    the kind that surrounds you like the ocean

    and flows like a river
