On a sun-drenched Greek island The sun is scorching  I’m so glad the hotel has air conditioning Almost everything is on show  No need for many clothes A light relief from the heat A dip in the pool or sea This is a real pleasure to me  Listening to the waves swaying too gallantly  Showing…

“Petrified” A word out of touch  “Petrified”  I am running out of time.  Emotions infused with glum  Feelings I can’t explain  Painted blue, Only with pain. Petrified  A voice disguised by disgust  I am not blind  Rather numb  Petrified  In a room full of roses  Knives in chamber  Nearer to my end  Waiting for a…

I see you every day, you are not here but you live within me.  I am left cleaning a mess you left  but still a mess you never made. I still check your emails, answer your calls because I somehow want to believe  you never left.  I wanna feel like you are still here.  I…

“Memories exist outside of time” Words quoted, not stolen “Even though I can swim, I always seem to drown.” Words fumbled, not folded. “Even when I am erased from your sight, I will remain in your heart” Words rehearsed, not genuine. “You will die with a smile” Truth spilled in tongues Words robbed of their…

I wanna be girls, the besties on tv. Sunday sitting, flipping magazines, on a warm beach, baking in the sun. Dreaming bout the women That we’d one day become. I wanna be girls Where our minds link like glue whatever I’m on ur down to do. Share a headset the preview’s soundproof But will check…
