Let’s go to Luna Park at night
When exhausted children heading home with big smiles
You and I go for rides in empty carts
We warm up with Ferris Wheel slowly climbs into the sky
watching twinkling lights
Bring back teenager romance on the Tango Train
Our breaths and bodies pulled in one by physics
Loosen ourselves on the Boomerang Rollercoaster
Momentarily break off restraint like horizontal yoyos
Before Mr Whippy’s iconic ice cream treat
Catch the thrill of the Hair Raiser
We get temporary hairdos
Mistaken our stomachs for hearts
I had a wonderful night darling
You made me smile and shine
We kissed under the lights
falling once again in each other’s eyes
Tag: love
Green
Baby leaves in new spring
Eye full of hope
The lawn outside our picket fence
Freshly cut grass
The forest we trekked through
Your eyes
The peaceable 💚 for sins forgiven
The graveyard our love rested upon
September Rain
Love didn’t die
It disappeared into our memory
Hot tears vouch for her existence
When our song comes on
September rain drenches pale leaves
Diving headfirst
Irrevocable
Good Morning
The city is dressed in rain this morning
Cars snail along in rush hour
Muted colour umbrellas move in steady waves glistening in the wet light
His eyes sparkle watching her snow-white beret twinkles in the grey crowd
brighter than any moving composition
He ploughs through the mass
greets her with a kiss of the morning dew
Ripple
My life flows like peaceful water
You come like ripples on a quiet lake
Leaving a mark of joy
Silence is a song that feels like poetry
The unimaginable beauty
All because of you
Sepia Love
I waited for you to rise
to tap a poem
while coffee was feeding your word frenzy
We didn’t make it to a thousand day fairy tale
I only made as far as my sanity allowed
The seas and mountains between us
humbled me
They were truly unshakable
Love Comes in Spring
Spring rain
softly
land on
hope
that
my love
will grow
new vines
to circle
your heart
shielding you
from blizzard
wrapping you
with tenderness
only lovers
know
Love As A Failed Art
Six Sentence Story word prompt – Canvas
I am an amateur artist finger painting on the canvas of our pure love.
Frantically smear every excitement all over a seemingly life long foundation, I am over charged with passion.
Halfway, I realise that there are patches heavily loaded with enthusiasm.
The balance is destroyed.
Giving my best effort to salvage it, I only manage to make it dark and dull.
Now the beauty is ruined, and I quit trying.
Clipped Wings
When I heard you singing to me
I thought I could fly to be with you
I have done it so many times in my youth
I have done so again in all my dreams
Reality came to me when the border closed
and then I became the outcast
I realised I would never be with you
with a pair of clipped wings
情书 (Love Letter)
我把未寄的情书
埋到雪野
越冷
爱越深
I buried
the unsent love letters
into the snow
the colder
the deeper the love
