Please


Please


It's not at all the rain, no. Nor the wind.
All things considered we both know
we've been summer to each other. But

Your embrace, a blanket over me.
Just need your eyes to have a fire that warms
without burning.

stars, falling or otherwise.
Our lips touched, and we forgot why we're alive.

Welcome To Her World


Welcome To Her World


Every astronaut should quiver.
Entering a spaceship, you have every right to ask:

- Will I need an alternate oxygen source?
- When will I be back?
- Are the locals reasonable?
- Have others made this voyage and lived?
-………how many?

- The raised eyebrow. What does it mean?

Every astronaut should quiver.
Entering a spaceship, you have every right to ask.
