Quênia Lalita Poems

i spit on the split of a second long gone
splitting myself in between before, after and doomed
i cross the bonfire of my childhood
before i found out what being alive really meant
...

cheating luck
threatning happiness
abusive hope
gruesome affection
...

i do still wonder
if i happen to cross your mind
once in a blue moon
when some random stars align
...

and now i ask the ghosts
and other sinister creatures
that haunt me to the bone
...

will you come with me
in a world reborn
and our universe within
...

the pressure is off
now we can move sharp objects
with the power of our minds
...

dangerous territory
contagious synesthesia
beware of the dog
...

soaked through clothes
thrown to the floor

broken bones
...

she keeps her emotions in a safe
she climbs balconies for no one

she has been called by so many names
...

you are coming back to me
because you know I need you
more than ever
...
