Orange Grids


My translucent curtains

Know all my dirty secrets
They colour my vision to beige

Your face is still a haze 

My white lies slip through

The gaps in my teeth
The flow of fresh carbon dioxide

Is mixed with the air of uncertainty that I breathe





I light myself a cigarette 

and put it to mouth
Black fills up my senses
And gushes into spaces of self doubt


My jaded skin curtains

They know my dirty little secrets
They saw us kiss in the shower
The vapour of your steamy lust covered the orange grids


I light myself a cigarette

 and put it to my mouth
The white ceiling has crumbled in this drought...
Maybe it's time to change the curtains now.

He was unlike any boy she had met. She was intoxicated by the thought of him. He was fascinated by the idea of her. Neither of them had any idea of what was going on in the other's head, neither of them knew what the other person was thinking. She wanted to be his best friend. She wanted to be his sworn confidante. No, she didn't know him at all. All she knew about him was his name, his passion for music and that he was a huge John Mayer fan. She had no idea of what she was getting into or how she got in but she couldn't control the attraction she felt towards him. She knew that there was something very dangerous about him. She knew it the second she spoke to him for the first time ever... But there was just something very captivating about the eyes he kept hidden from the world; there was a mystic magic that the compelling and almost magnetic force of his gaze seemed to display and yet surreptitiously concealed behind the domains of his self-created psychosocial barriers

About Kissing

As the air from my nose divides itself from the tip of yours, skims down your cheekbones, And my gasps vanish in between the gaps in your teeth I recount, while you push your face into mine and scavenge for magic in my mouth, how our lips locked so well yesterday and how today, as you wave my tongue like it was manufactured only for your consumption, your appetite bobs off my face like a ball of oil trying to dive in water. I wonder if it were my lips t hat changed their shape or your intentions, your tantrums or my apprehensions? I wonder if you realize that the lump in your throat is the lie I'm choking on, and that my lips don't belong to you just because you have touched them with yours before.
