I like to play
with scissors...
I fell in love with you the first night.
Should’ve known better...
Truth is, I still love you,
in the quiet ways I don’t admit out loud...
Whenever Eid comes, I remember my father's white...
That worn-out panjabi—how many years old it was...
I told her that she is me-
If I’d had parents the way she has me and her...
I don’t regret meeting you.
I regret how long I stayed...
We were trouble while being troubled;
And it was the best two weeks of my life with you...
My legacy is in the care I've put into other's.
It's a shame they won't remember half of it...
Come here now and drink from my eternal well
It's ever flowing with the mixture you all created...
I said my final goodbyes
And you never even knew...
The black rises, then falls.
A flash of orange 'neath the grey...
Lovely plants,
Little forms...
