Bloody lips
Last night I had a dream
I had a dream of dancing to the beat of our national anthem
Fireworks bursting in the sky like meteors in collision
I had a dream of biting your tongue and your lips until they bled
I don’t need a magnetic compass anymore as it has given me already the right path where my lips would take
Sipping the blood on your lips like nectar
It tastes like sugar venom
It tastes like syrup
Last night, I was in a dark paradise
I was in a dark paradise as I dreamed about you caressing my skin like the tall grass
Pulling the ribbon on my hair
Brushing my hair with your fingers
The blood on your lips left a mark on my neck
I love your bloody lips as they gave me heaven last night
Flicker
If I could drink kerosene to bring back the flame
If I could garden my feelings for them to grow
I miss dancing with you barefoot on the linoleum floor
I miss lying on it while counting the flickers of the light
Until now, I keep counting, hoping that when the light hits its millionth flicker, you are now here, lying with me on the cold floor
But when I keep on counting, you are slowly disappearing
I stopped blinking but the light became my eyes, blinking forever until the pieces of you are slowly disappearing
The floor is getting colder as I spend twenty-four hours waiting for your voice on the radio
The light flickers faster than before going beyond the quota
The flickering light became the flesh of the flashing camera
I admire the winter but I hate it now
For the winter lived in me
Hoarfrost formed in my body
I want you now before the good memories disappear in a single flicker of the light

Orchestra
The hymn of the wind and the song of the rain
The sound of the thunder and my heartbeat
Playing a melancholic music while tears cascading
Cracked ceiling and a container accumulating raindrops
The nature is an orchestra during rainy days
Waiting for the rain to stop to smell your scent
The aroma of cinnamon on your shirt
Longing for your love and it hurts
Paper Love
Carved names into the trees
The autumn leaves fell like April rain
Lost like unused words petals of weeping myrtle
Your love is evergreen but you gave me paper love
You left me and now I am the only character in the sequel
This is a never ending quell
The euphoria when we kissed
Your lips tasted like cinnamon
I wished on dandelions a million times
Hoping that the seeds would find you along the way
But they traveled astray
I wish you had stayed
