Frustration
Sometimes it seems that
struggling harder gets me
further from my goals.

May Mourning
When the spring arrives
All the trees bear green tombstones
For fallen flowers.
Emotion-less
I’m wearied by your fervor
and think it as shallow as your fads:
an ironic indulgence
which you may one day deny
with precisely the same passion
with which you affirmed it.
4 days, 3 nights
Weekend getaway
filled with long drives, wrong turns, and
pleasant memories.
Nippon
Though the sun bleeds out
we must always remember
it will rise again.
Atlantis
The steady rainfall
swallows up the islands
and transforms the trees
into a forest
of drowning tombstones.
The heart
I’m kind to others
because when I’m kind to them
I’m kind to myself.
