Why is there even you?
There are days I have no memory of
Like a girl rolling over in her 20s
You might find me tossing my head
You might find me twirling round and round
Under the immense gaze of rainy nights
My face lying upwards
Feeling the universe
Feeling the drops fall like
Bees returning to the beehives
And then there is you
I wear reds quite too often
I know how to get lost among the crowd
Under the immense passion rumbling in my womb
I know when I let someone hold my nape
And let it go like pearls falling from a delicate string
And then there is you
Like grains pouring back in an hourglass
I am selling my soul at the altar
Putting suffering to a better use
Homeless, deserted, ancient
There is a thin possibility
When you cup my face someday
The breaths in my windpipe might betray
You, me, and everything else.
