Each day seems to last forever
A consistent heavy rain to keep you inside
You’re scared to love again
but you still flirt with time
and let the flame burn
until it develops into a fire within
that reminds you that
love is really not your thing
I’m a big fan of the element imagery! The little play on words with ‘flirt[ing]’ was so neat and well timed. What tone did you intend for the last line? I originally read it in a lighthearted way (probably due to a newfound appreciation for humour in poetry) but on second reading, I realised that it could be quite dark.
it is very dark comedy centric. glad that you’re analysis are always so spot on. wish you were my friend so i could send you all my pieces and you could analyse them like you do and vice versa.
I’m flattered! I always enjoy analysing your work, so do let me know if you’re ever interested. 🙂
definitely!! next piece up 7:30 am IST. looking forward to your analysis
Fall in love with time? Never! Love’s not my thing. *brushes off shoulders coolly*
😂😂 well time will always love you regardless
Your poems and words have a unique and ephemeral essence of life. Good work.
wow thank you for this ❤️
My pleasure. I have read your short pieces on Instagram too.
did you find them okay?
I really liked them.You have an intriguing thought process.
i’m flattered. thanks.
Love really was never my thing 🙂
maybe it will be some day
Well, I am happier otherwise 🙂
Can I ask how you manage to write so regularly and SO well? I struggle for inspiration and it rarely comes .
The answer lies in your comment. I stopped waiting for inspiration and just started writing. Even if I don’t like what I write I make myself post it because I know my best work is yet to be written.
Thank you for your kind words 🙂
