Previous skins
Five years ago flew by
Now, already remote
The rolling of the years
They’re already afloat
Your past self
Already a ghost
When you stand still
You begin to grieve your previous skins
Wonder why you had to forget and kill
Old personalities just to multiply new
So, you cling on to specific moments
Promise not to forget, you never will
But it is not uniqu...

death of a gorgon
so I become this wrought iron
that I have forged with my own two hands.
I sharpen myself,
tip to hilt.
but
my mouth,
the very blade that can cut the sky,
chose to speak in a healers' tone instead.
I remind myself
of the violence it took
to become
this gentle.
this cup of earth in my hands,

Asking myself, who am I now?
And, who do I want to be?
Against my will, my mind flickers through memories past,
Confronted with my shadow
Refusing to flee, I learn to cope with the density
Leaving room...

Our Journey
Let's escape our separate towns together,
Away from prying eyes,
Where no one knows our faces yet,

We'll laugh and smile discussing hopes and dreams,
And make known all of our desires,
