  • a poem: feel me

    Ya feel me?, they say Well, usually no one feels ya, my friend. Occasionally, they might feel ya. They might eventually get you. Get your state of mind. Your emotional state. But how often does that happen? How precious is it when they actually and instantly do. That one person that truthfully relates. That understands […]

  • a poem: the safe side

    I could have let it go Could’ve accepted it to be a… periodic fling? I could have been open Could’ve told you that… it’s totally fine? I could have resumed just as before Could’ve forgotten the… physicality? It would have been the safe thing to do Would’ve, should’ve, could’ve It would’ve been a lie. The […]

  • a story about a girl and a boy

    On a two-lane road they used to ride side by side, when some day the lanes were divided. They continued their journeys separately. It was okay for a while as they had always shared their cars with somebody else any way. It was okay, before she started to miss what they had. Time after time […]

  • Truthful, courageous 2019

    Don’t hold back this year. Not on the words you say. Not on the opinion you think. Not on the demand you formulate. Think freely. Speak truthfully. We are all evolving as we breathe.

  • London Winter Wonder Flakes

    This beautiful, vibrant city. I’ve been there a dozen times and yet it never seizes to show me something new.

  • a poem: why wouldn’t I?
