Up in the air but eyes on the prize

It was a weekday. Before I opened my eyes, I felt one of my arms wrapped around some big, firm but soft shape. A square, maybe? Slowly, my heavy eyes still closed, I ran my hands up and down trying to make up what it was, and why it was…

Embrace the storyteller within

On cloudy as on a starry night, eyes open wide the mystery, no more a secret, of formation of the clouds intrigues me as much as the far, far bright specks of light in the sky Night so calm, breeze so warm, the almost audible sound of homebodies nestling in…

The Tradition

I get the tradition. Believe me, I get the tradition. The want and the need to “become one” when you’re in love; the excitement of the “forever” promise when a couple says, “I do.” The search for the perfect dress that comes after for some women… I get it all. …

Failure to engage — a poem

Unraveling Thin Walls

My neighbors go quiet every so often. And on occasions, they’re as loud as a Saturday market. I can tell they’re a couple (unless their idea of a casual relationship also means living together). Their instability is loud. …

Revolving Door Tribulations

The day I found out perfection couldn’t be achieved, I knew I had one thing and one thing only left to be: unapologetically human. Flawed to the core. Shamelessly vulnerable. Breakable. Of all this, I find the latter is the hardest thing to be. You’re breakable from the moment you’re…

With You I Would: a Poem

Different from what I’m used to But I could get used to your fingertips touching mine reaching across the table like the cheesy movies do Wrap my hair around them shape every coil, every twirl pick up a bottle on the way make dinner for two Dust off the red suspender light up the jasmine candle watch it flicker to the gentle beat of your chest, I surrender Grapes and tea in the morning and no sugar or honey needed ’cause when I taste it off your lips it’ll be already sweetened

22 Lessons I Learned from Heartbreak

I’ve learned that anyone you care about can make you shatter into pieces. I’ve learned that heartbreak doesn’t always have a sad face. I’ve learned that “it’ll pass” or “ man up” / “ woman up “ won’t help the healing process. I’ve learned that society believes in rebounds and…
