I tried to asseverate
the state of my heart,
I asked you to be gentle with it,
but you intervened,
tugged me close,
and kissed me mad.
Now I bleed your name
and your sight is out of reach.
I spend my days looking for the moon in the broad daylight.
I've lost all sense of clarity.
You should've let me complete my sentence,
before you kissed me,
because now you cannot kiss me without tasting your name on my lips.
-Anneshwa
Meet me on the bridge of glorified agony,
Afloat ; a floating incident between two grounds above water
Between a winsome arrival and a sorrowful departure.
Can we burn it, so that we don't have to cross the bridge?
Bridge will always be the metaphor for us.
It's a portal between two places,
And that's what we are.
Neither lovers, nor strangers.

I love that word. Forever. I love that forever doesn't exist, but we have a word for it anyway, and use it all the time. It's beautiful and doomed.

Your eyes ignited the unexpected wildfires that my little cottage heart wasn't ready for. Now, i burn, my home burns and your eyes burn while watching everything else flaring into ashes.
