She emerges from the Sea prophetically– Her bronzed skin, layered with droplets of water, Glistening with glory in summer sun. The way she moves is enough to paralyze a man– Her movements are refined and effortless, As though she were gliding over the land beneath.

Today, I feel the pain of the world as she reaches her arms out for my chest, as if to steal my delicate little heart away. “Please,” I say, “take good care of it until I return.” As I offer my heart and soul to an indescribable figure from another dimension. I have no plan.Continue reading “Destination Unknown”

Once everything was over between us, I realized I wasn’t the same person that you fell for. Instead, I tried to become the person I thought you wanted me to be and lost myself in the process.

Absorbed in the past, I find myself contemplating time–oh, how I’ve grown!

After all, I’ve never met someone who understands me so well,Continue reading “Selfish Love”

I stood outside her door eager to find out what was in store for me. The next thing I remember is drinking wine out of large coffee mugs with you; then you carefully select a record, place it on the turntable, put the needle on the record, and melancholy sounds start reverberating around the room. WeContinue reading “Moving On”

I’ve always underestimated my abilities. Maybe it’s because I never thought I was good enough. I never thought I was smart or attractive, I wasn’t cool or nerdy, I wasn’t wealthy, I didn’t have a dad–I was an outcast. Even within my family I felt like I was out of place; my mom and sisterContinue reading “Underestimate My Existence”

How can such a simple item like a toothbrush so powerfully remind you of everything we used to be? I remember when I first gave it to you, it was such a stupid gesture, but you were so excited about it. Looking back, it was subtly acting as a symbol of you moving into myContinue reading “Symbol of You”
