Dried rose buds, burning red Like my heart, aching for you, hungrily Your lips tasted like honey syrup, saccharine, heady Your name written on a paper heart, in a jar, sealed A bag of tea, lavender musk Stir, stir, chanting A drop of blood, spilled Drink, my love The spell unbroken Be mine alone, be… Continue reading Makutu

Lolo
You are the memory I wish I do not forgetThe summer days we spent together, talking to the wind, not caring about anything elseThe favourite blue coat you used to wearStill etched on my mind. We used to have long walksYour footprints guided my every stepThe trees we used to sit under, all forgotten nowBut… Continue reading Lolo
Under
Judging from the dirt in his feet and the crumpled bottle beside him, the man sleeping on the cold cement floor of the bus stop is obviously drunk or has passed out because of the weather. I didn’t think much of it, I see that shit everyday and people don’t care, we have our own… Continue reading Under
The Sinner
Then you saved meAnd you gave me, freedomMore than what I asked for. More than what I deserved. You redeemed me, my LordYou took all my sins awayMy rotten self, you healed. A chance to change my lifeMore than a million timesMore than what I prayed for. Lost in the darkness, You found meUnworthy, yet… Continue reading The Sinner

I threw all my love letters away, they're meaningless now The titles in my poems are now just a figment of the past you didn't know There… Continue reading Ocean
Big Heart
Six times a week I saw him there. He was the first one to always greet me whenever I arrive at work. He is a big man. You can already assume that he is from Africa or Bangladesh because of his skin colour. His hair is the typical-curly-I-woke-up-like-this kind of hair. He was always the coy… Continue reading Big Heart
The June Love Letters
12:27 AM Hey, I saw you in my dreams last night. It was vague and surreal, like a fictitious episode from one of my stories, you didn't say a word, you just stood there and took my breath away like you always do, so easily. You vanished like a magical spell before I could even… Continue reading The June Love Letters
Alma
God has created an angel An angel with no wings An oasis of impetus and comfort The purest visage of love In the midst of all the chaos She is my sanctuary In an ocean of plangent noise Her arms are my tranquil Her warmth and devotion built an in-frangible home Her… Continue reading Alma
