silverware

.....

1 min read

i still set two plates,

though i eat alone.

the ritual feels holy.

like a sad kind of prayer,

or maybe it's just denial,

disguised

as silverware.

when you look at me,

suddenly,

i forget how to breathe.

i remember

how to live.

you saw me.

you taught me what it felt like

then,

a silent goodbye.

you were never truly mine,

but i held you anyway.

as if gentleness could stop

the goodbye i saw

forming in your eyes.

...still waiting.

.....

some parts of me still waits

for the sound of your footsteps.

not because

i believe you're coming back,

but because

i hate the silence

you left behind.

almost forever.

our love died quietly.

no thunder.

no tears.

just two people

who quit reaching

at the same time.

i can't wash you away.

.....

1 min read

no matter how much I wash it off, it’s still there...

the weight of another day without you,

your name caught

at the back of my throat.


the water runs warm,

then cold,

then warm again,

as if it can’t decide

to comfort me or torture me.


your voice once filled this house

like sunlight through open windows.

now every room feels hollow,

as if the walls know you’re gone.


i scrub my hand...

the weapon that won the earth.

.....

1 min read

it wasn’t sharp, not really.

more like a petal that refused to wilt.

She carried it across the hate-filled earth,

the way one might cradle a candle, guarding its flame.


wherever she struck,

flowers rose in apology,

and hatred found itself unable

to remember why it stayed.


people whispered:

you can’t fight with such a thing.

but she did.

and the world softened around her attacks.


for her weapon ...
