It feels closer today than yesterday and tomorrow the focus will further enhance. I know how long I have waited - for you to arrive. I didn't always wait for the storms to pass. I have broken down and sobbed rotten. With frozen tears running through the streams of mucus. I didn't always protect you from the stampede in my life. You have been trampled, trampolined and travelled upon by a heady breeze with heavy feet. I have felt you fade in fragments of humiliation. Tonight, you feel warm against me. As if you found me and not I followed you. Stay strong - my dream. You will arrive by God's Grace.

The worst kind of strangers
- those living inside you.

Behind every vibrant colour,
there's white hiding - none
notice. She was that laughter
everyone forgot to ask about,
after the hues faded.

-

The calm wears chaos like an
engagement ring, twisting it
on the ring finger ever so often
- in doubt. Funny, that chaos
wears calm in her heart and
sleeps soundly every night.

Shall I tell you a story,
that maybe different from yours,
maybe you find it very familiar.
One that chilled your blood blue.
Too often you showed blithe disregard.
Haven't you ignored it long enough?
Does it take your heart in its palm
and squeeze it hard to breath?
Each of us carry a voice in secret,
you can hear it whisper in greys.
It wears hair just like you,
that smile slightly ginger pink.
The glint in the eyes so cinnamon.
Why do you not hear?
Why does it turn you a stranger so?

You know a rainbow that you can feel?
No.
A hug.
How is a hug a rainbow?
A hug is a rainbow with one end crisscrossed. All the colours flow from one end to the other. The warmth exuded; transpires and melts all the emotions and when you come out of it, you feel lighter. Just like the sky, after it rains and shines at the same time, it grows calmer - a rainbow.

If days grow older
and nights grow younger,
aren't we always going
to be poems in making?
