“there are some poems
that we leave behind
some that leave us behind
while some just live
silently
in the heart
crumble, sometimes
dwindle
disappear
die
and are reborn
when you smile again.”

“We thought everything would be
forgotten, but I still remember your
claws running down my back.

the way I do.
How our legs would crash
into each other in the middle
of the night, and how we ended
up creating the moon in the
confines of our beds.”

“A candle's value diminishes when it
Lit in broad daylight
A song loses its allure when it plays
Amid a cacophony of noise
A secret loses its power when it
Revealed to everyone without discretion
A rare gem loses its value when it becomes
Abundant and easily accessible
Nothing that you do is your fault or your mistake,
It’s just that you’re in the WRONG PLACE!!”
― Ethereal

just the hush before it.
Like a breath I meant to keep

“You took the part of him
that still believed
in something more than pain—
and dressed it up in pixie dust

You don't get to wrap your hunger
in fairy dust and dusk
and call it rescue.”

from the skin of forgotten boys.
We sharpen our grief on coral reefs
and spit prayers into bottles
no one will open.”
