Simultaneously
I hug my loneliness and offer my body to you.
The need to have your hand on my face
is so overwhelming,
my eyes are begging you to
hit me,
wipe my tears,
touch my cheek while you look away.
Anything,
as long as I get the physical expression of what you call
a lustful attention.
The minute I wake up,
I want to replicate the fantasies in my head,
thinking that if I act long enough,
my life will become a pool of petal-filled happiness.
Pretty as a snowflake
and cold as a thousand of them,
I learn lessons of life
the hard way.
One step forward and three back –
that’s the pace of the mechanical love.
Poisoned with apathy,
I stare at pictures of myself,
while my fingers are busy picking cogs
out of my favourite clock.
Time becomes irrelevant,
when your life is inked with misfortune.

Painfully beautiful and entrancing…riveting words.
Major Like !
love
Deep, had to re-read it but in love with the poetry. The last two sentences nailed it!!
I have watched snowflakes fall into my hands and vanish at touch
Tock tick
The hand moves backwards
Struggling against natural forces
Unnatural attractions
and needs beyond comprehension.
[so good to see you writing again]
So many gifts you have and so many gifts you share with your words that create so many possibilities…
You are the best Chatty. So nice to see your work again.
poignant – a better class of lover seems deserved
The good thing about creative writing is, it can be as fiction as you want it to be 🙂
whew!
You’re unbelievable.
CAN’T HELP
but early morning
condensates
on skin
oil
sooths
brass fingers
tremoring stacatto
I’m just me, isn’t it? The words that sometimes make the mind dance.
oh my…roaring back with such beauty and pain. I have missed you and you words!
And who would that be? Someone?
Oh shit, haha. I thought this was still linked up with my WordPress account! This Jordan! J.R.Taylor! Owen Valachi!
Haha, you don’t have to explain in such detail, you silly! What happened to your wordpress account then?
