“I just needed five more minutes of this feeling
A moment before I could be brave enough to
let go of your hand
and embrace the world after you”
― Loveish

“Your love was a monster
Every time I would come up for some air
it would drown me further
deeper, furiously”

“This longing is my curse
and your burden
to carry till the end
One has to pay a price
for breaking something
and staying broken”

“Read me like your favourite book, word for word. Sing me like your favourite song, beat for beat. Take a walk with me in your dreams, hand in hand. Chant me like a prayer, bead for bead. Hold me in your arms like I am magic, dark, cursed yet loveable. Love me the way no one has ever been loved before.”

“I didn't love like the women who swiped left and right from one heartbreak to another. I couldn't just trade some skin for scraps of attention from men who would never use a Swiss knife to declare their love for me, by scraping my initials on the bark of an old oak tree or promise me a forever with a lovelock on Ponte Des Arts. I needed a Romeo. I deserved a Shakespeare in love. I deserved a man who had birds flying out of his ribcage every time he saw me smile.”

“I wish I could live in a sentence, incarcerated for life among your words. I want to be that flower, that lost count of its breaths somewhere in a haiku or a sonnet, lifeless and wrecked, smeared in ink, in a dusty pile of books, swallowing sunshine by your window.”
― Lover

“Your memories are
poisoning all the sunshine
that exists within me
Oh this beautiful misery
when will I ever feel like me”

“No one knows all
that is hidden in a woman's heart
the secret lovers
the silent heartbreaks
All the pain buried
deep inside its chambers
She must have loved you deeply
If she let you see her naked soul”

“You broke my heart and I wrote you a poem
My broken soul, like a teardrop that refuses to drop out of my eye, always tries to act brave”

“At the break of dawn I wake up mesmerized
to the vision of you walking towards me
Fresh out of the shower shirtless, with wet hair
and in your unbuttoned jeans
I ache for a kiss as I put away the cigarette
hanging loosely on your lips
And in the moment when your lips touch mine I realize
there is no way I am making it out of these sheets
or Paris”

“We almost made it
We almost died trying
We almost drowned and saved ourselves
We almost fell in love
Well something like love
a lot like love
almost lovers
almost but not quite
Not love but loveish
Damn loveish!”

“Loneliness was an alchemist that turned me into gold. Men flock around me to claim a piece of my soul and place their ears on my chest to hear my heart beating slower than the hands of time. Yes, I let them but I so badly wish it was you. I am not easy to love, but then who really is? Treasures and gold I am, I am love and Petra and California too. I am a lottery ticket with the winning numbers, but this money is cursed When I stand in the sun, the reflection is you, you and all you.”

“Hey lover,
You knock on the door to my broken heart everyday and I don't open
I locked it, for I cannot handle another apocalypse”

“I have accepted that
this is how it’s going to be
that love and longing
are going to take turns
to sleep with me in my bed
and though you may come and go
this pain in my heart is here to stay.”

“There is a love poem in here somewhere, it still has baby teeth A precocious pearl in an unopened shell, adamant and stubborn that it wants to love you, so baby please let it! There is a love poem in here somewhere, and it burns like autumn. Dirt stained on the sidewalk, in a pile of deciduous leaves, at loggerheads with the wind that it wants to love you, so baby please…let it”

“I know you remember
how hard I bit the word love
until it bled out of my mouth
or how my lips trembled when I said you”

“There is love here, there is lusciousness of poetry, no people. People are either poison or magic, either way they break hearts. But there is love here and Christmases and a library. There are possibilities, of joy.”

“I removed my soul and set it aside to be read on a Sunday unlike today. Today my lonely is heavier than the earth and the weight of it has been killing me slowly. Time is birthing more time and I don't know what I want to do with the excess I already have.

“We rested our tired spines on your terrace waiting
for stars to show up and fix our broken constellations,
for the moon to be whole, for a meteor shower,
for the northern lights
I stayed up staring at the sky every night
before falling asleep, before sunrise
and you were gone before my eyes were hit by dawn
You were so wrong
so, so wrong for me
I know that deeply
But poetically,
if you know what I mean
Poetically, so right”

“I gifted him my words,
the best ones from my wardrobe of poems
But he dissolved those greedy high rollers
in his cup of coffee
They swam in his café au lait
colonizing every molecular space,
that was left between the sugar and the cream
in anticipation that
they could cover the distance
between his cup and his lips
quicker than I ever could”
