love

”journey to find the right words
to find words
words.”

love has tasted inside of our mouths in

different ways,

mangos have been eaten

strawberries have been peeled

the pink ocean

has touched

our

feet.

 

this time i ask you,

 

‘what is forever?’

you grab my fingers honestly and say,

‘i believe in moments’

I believe-me-myself in forever.

 

i had taught myself

how to accept and not ask

again.

 

‘i believe in complete

i also believe

your fair share

is

important.’

 

i don’t say this out loud and instead,

i share a joke

and you laugh

 

‘all this time- 

i failed to will myself to cross the bridge.’

 

catch myself.

incomplete because i am yet to develop this!

instagram part 3

a long time ago i wanted to write a post about image. i couldn’t find the right word.

in this short piece

i found them

.  .  .

my vulnerability cannot be sold- the price is too high
don’t tear off my clothes and mouth: love, love
don’t waltz around in your covered-clothed and gaze at me bare, spaced, open as “You’re a fine jewel, darling.”
Don’t languish me with flowery language that’s only meant to last a second
Don’t make my legs shake- unable to walk and you say, “I’ll carry you, darling.”
Don’t do that to me: to my soul, to everybody
my vulnerability is precious: it is my treasure
my treasure: it ought to be pure, and rubified 
Don’t whisper sweet sweet nothings
In my soft, kind, feeble ear and say this is forever 
Forever is not about my body: forever is about how my soul can languish with yours consistently
Forever will not salvage our fights: our disagreements 
So let’s leave this vulnerability in a safe box for later: and open my mind and talk to me.
-chastity

as always, asia, with love.

how are you? for this second edition. i thought i should give you a longer post. i wasn’t sure if posting them all at once was a good idea? so why not give you a dose of splendor in bits?

…as always, enjoy them with ice cream and pancakes, and with love.

.  .  .

we live in this small little house on the hill: with our two unfinished books and bed of love.

and you’re an occasional dreamer: naming our future successes like you’ve spelt them already.

By the meadow: I sleep across your arms/

happiness struck the chord. You go on and on and on chattering about the confluence of things.

Do we hear? Do they hear? You ask.
I let out a laugh and immediately silence you with a peck: your face changes and you look at me so lovingly.

You smirk and look down at the lake.
You talk about our future. You talk about how we met

and when I never glanced your way. You talk about how you loved, adored to watch me: how it would excite you to hear me

talk of a revolution. You would watch my lips sync into that madness

in your head: it electrified

and you knew we would

synchronize very well.

You said you weren’t so sure that if you picked me: that I would be the one to ride this down the sunset and take long drives in the

hot weather: with you. Hand against my thigh.
But I did. And that silenced your queries.

You’re making me sound like a goddess, I say.
But you are darling- you whisper.

I was intelligent and courageously intellectual in things only you understood: only you understood because you said them and I’d jump up in pride because I knew we were a match.
I roll my eyes.

Sometimes you say things like, that are so intense-
Like what, I cut you

Remember that day you said our love was similar to those ones you never pay attention to but that when you do their power scares you because they leave you asking

for what next? Babygirl, can I tell you that this is the last one?

I look at him intensely.

This is the last one- marry me.

A long poem

the time you left, now you are back

I tried to make myself happy. I over flew with happiness

I wrote so many things,
convinced you’d never come back.

I tried to connect the wires together
knowing it was all my fault.

I told myself that I’d meet another you
again like I always had.

I lied to myself that I could find
you.

I knew that what we had shared
was very special
and that you said things to me about myself
I would never utter.

I slept with a certain hollow,
listening to your cold tone
wondering where I’d cut the wire.

Where had I cut the wire?

Was it when I let go of your hand?
When I was angry?
When I had lost the tune?

now you are back

I look at the ceiling
I spend such long nights with you
asking myself if it will happen again
If we’ll lose each other again.

we are gentler. I laugh cautiously. loving you more.

I know it is complicated. I know sometimes I am kind and you are unkind.
But I know I will never forget the way you make me feel.

like I am the only person that you see when the tides begin, and when the clouds rise,
and when the sun sets.

I know you love me. I see the way you linger on to my fingers, when we are alone.
I see your eyes.
I see your soul.
I read you.
You read me.

We love.
