One more thing before you go

Hey, Mum!
You'll be fine
No need to look so worried
Before you know we'll put up those flowers for the summer

Hey, Mum!
Something smarter than "call if you need me"
Something more loving

'Cause we were supposed to see each other again
In a few short hours

Hey, Mum!
Don't!
Come back you bitch!
Don't do that, not you too

Mummy
Your little girl wants one more hug

What am I supposed to do?

What if?

One more year run by
One less year to tell the lie

Maybe you walk in different worlds
Adventure filled and rich with words
Maybe you travel time in dreams
yet in this time you remain a voiceless scream
This time,
this world

Maybe
An another you
an earlier you
succumbed to the dark
and left you out of spark

What if there is no sequel?
What if life is something
that happens to other people?

Things I like

Sloths and salamanders
Stories with vampires

Tireless kittens
and knitted mittens

Purple midnight sky
and black hair dye
I even like being shy

Tight cuddles
and muddy puddles

Thunderstorms
Tiny worms

Sharp knives
Thoughts of previous lives

Sounds in silence
Fictional violence

Candlelight
And when there's no one in sight

Alone

A cry echoed in the space between now and then:
"Alone"
"Alone, alone, alone"

A pain that used to be:
"Need me
want me
love me"

All heard it 'cause all cried it:
"Don't abandon me"

Crowded streets and silent forests all screamed the loneliness of the times.
"Be mine"
