Playing with creativity -- The Art of losing



The art of losing is a necessary one
Lost memories that are unstitched through time
Each string lost 
Until your face is a blur

Emotions  are torn apart
From the very fabric of these memories
They are Recycled
And Reused
Into new memories
Where new lovers delight

They are mended again
Neatly stitched within each memory
And a nicely placed red bow called love

When your gentle hands are finished
I realized that the art of losing was necessary.


Playing with creativity - Letters from the beyond



You there, standing, You don’t notice me. By the time you get this I will be long gone. I wanted to write something cheesy like, “thank you for loving, sorry in advanced for not telling I was sick-peace”, but then I realized the humor would be painful, and you would probably resent me so I opted for this. I remember when we met. You were reading by the library. At this time I was fine, probably dying, but fine anyway. I liked your yellow stripped shirt that made you look like a bee with your fuzzy buzzcut that was now growing. Well now that I am dead you must know that I think it was love at first sight for me.

Misstep (poem)


We didn’t want to take two steps forward
That was one two many steps
And so we stayed there  without moving

Flint


Loneliness makes me uneasy. It is a flint bouncing off a wooden surface, ready to combust. I’m so scared to confront it; to get consumed by it. But if I don’t, it will take everything.  Some days its not so bad, but other days the flint becomes unstable and threatens the cabin.
