He took my mind in his hands
And he filled it with galaxies.
Hopes and dreams travelled through my thoughts
And the confidence he gave me radiated within me
Like nothing we’d ever witnessed before.
He wished upon a falling star
and created me.

The Colour Black
Original PoetryHave you noticed how poetic the colour black is?
It’s the colour of the night sky
as a blanket of stars smothers daylight.
It’s the colour of ash
as a finger of fire traces the scars of the earth.
It’s the only colour you can see
through the darkness as it suffocates you.
It’s the colour of the ink
used to write this very poem.

I made him immortal.
An Apartment in New York City
Original WritingI wish we could live in an apartment in New York City,
where the sun would always shine as dawn breaks
and large windows would illuminate the room with sultry hues of gold,
or even in the winter where frost would climb the glass
as we huddle under the covers to stay warm.
Yellow taxis
neon lights
lilac sunsets.
That’s the dream.
And it all starts
And ends
With you.
Intentional Blindness
Original WritingWhat’s the use of eyes if the mind is blind?
