siren, sing me to sleep.ripples move in a sea of swords spreading in a mass of waves.
broken in still waters she lies on her back: fanned hair tangled in seaweed with pale legs and spindly arms spread-eagled in a stance of supplication.
thrums of drums sound in murky depths; a call to honour a memory of moments ago.
heads break the surface: pale green hair damp with seawater, tridents raised in salute, expressions solemn.
she lies in wait - deaf to the herald, blind to the bows.
suffocated by greedy fingers, clothes tor siren, sing me to sleep.

their hearts in soilKnowing him, I’ve learned that the answer to “Did he do that to you?” is “My brother’s all I got”, just as the answer to “Isn’t it human to cry?” is “No, only weak humans”.
“Who told you that?”
“My brother.”
Knowing him is difficult. _
She thinks she’s my shrink.  I don’t need a shrink, I don’t need her.  I don’t need anyone.  I’m just like my brother.  He doesn’t need anyone.   Not even me. _ &nbs their hearts in soil

don't tell me if i'm dyingHe had clover eyes. Luck. Was his middle name. Maybe. That’s what he told everyone. But then again he was known to tell people he was good at wrestling because he was abused by his father and good at science because aliens from Jupiter lived in his closet. That was him. A body of lies everyone wished could be bent into truth.
She had ballerina fingers. How could she have had ballerina fingers? It was because they danced across keys like they were steps to a different world and she had no eyes for the music—stupid music that thr don't tell me if i'm dying

strange and strangerTheir paths first crossed in the waiting room to the principal’s office, one anticipating reward and the other punishment.
Despite a few variations, they were there at the hands of the same culprit: a simple sequence of words threaded by pen onto a sheet of notebook paper. The same brand, actually.
He spoke first, voicing his discomfort—as well as the room’s—toward her presence. Her painfully straight posture and crystalline eyes were unfit for this styrofoam prison whose sole purpose was to make one regurgitate his wrongdoings before the principal even knew strange and stranger

Call of the pastDecember 1918 was the first time I saw him. That man with gentle looks, with eyes ready to embrace my sorrowful body still forms a shadow in my memories even today.

I do not know why, but my mind can make no more a portrait of him. It seems as if pieces of puzzle flow deep in my mind, trying to reach each other, but nevertheless, distant from forming that final image. And yet again, I am able to form an image crystal clear of his smile. I like to think that I feed my heart with that image. No matter how foolish it may seem, it is all I have left from that distant memory.
Sometimes I keep ask Call of the past

IncompleteBefore you came into my life, I would sleep and merely dream of dreams. I didn’t know what dreaming was, Until I dreamt of you it seems. Sure there were days when I was happy; I’d have one every once in a while. But I’ve never been happier, Than those days I made you smile. And I never cared for caring much (I never really wanted to) But my mind began to change, Once I began to care for you. I only feign to breathe when you’re away, Because you’re like the air to me. And I’d gladly pick you first, Because I love you more tha Incomplete
