this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart.

dear memory

beautiful friend, we are just old pleasures. wasting away with what could have been and what never will, we befriend regret, hope and the possibility of another life. we speak of gasping breaths and foggy windows, goodnight sighs and silent kisses. we dance in the arms of childhood. we rest our heads on the shoulders of old age. we live as if there's no tomorrow, because there isn't. there is no future for broken memories.

chain smoking

a moment
echoes around the houses
and lights up a face
no tears
just fears
and a burning world between her fingers
barefoot she wishes
to be as graceful as the smoke
leaving her lungs
dancing around her
disapprearing into the night sky
leaving her for stars
ash falls to the ground
burning throat
she sighs
she's breathing in her death
welcoming it into her body

'darling, let's have fun'

touches leave prints all over my chest and our desires mix with the morning air. fingers trace patterns left by the sun, peeling skin and morals. summer is the time for fun, for life, for death they say, but he's in the next room counting my sighs in his mind. cringing as your hip bones meet with mine.
