Favorite Quote:
&quot;We have lingered in the chambers of the sea by sea girls wreathed with sea weed red and brown, till human voices wake us, and we drown.&quot; - TS Eliot<br /> <br /> &quot;I believed that I wanted to be a poet, deep down I just wanted to be a poem&quot;


I'm blaming bad timing

I'm blaming the universe, the bits you don't even believe in

I'm blaming everything else to still believe

- that it's just your mind that's capricious

your heart knowns it needs me,

 

that the walls of my bedroom were not made to let me cry in the dark,

 

that the downpour of our conversations did not diffuse the spark

 

the thought of kissing anyone else feels like degrating myself, although I know I'll never see other eyes, when I close mine.

 

Yours are tattooed in the black spots of my mind.
