its like lilies. diluted heaps of blue tears. scalded and indexed. all the marking onto my heavy lips. My lips are even today, with plum shade paint dancing on the rim of sorbet. its like white wildflower, a fish with black scales dancing in its slumber. Piquant, small pebbles cascacding from tears. salty as skin. salty as dream. its like mirror, sequin shades of lover. i am wondersruck galaxy. These veins in my hands run fever now.
Thank you dear readers for always reading my words and leaving your lovely comments. I truly appreciate it.
Gorgeous 💛

A moving touching poetic of language.
My favorite lines: “a fish with black scales dancing in its slumber.
Piquant, small pebbles cascacding from tears.”
Such a very different approach to your previous other works and I love it so much more. 🙂
