Would You Still Judge?
she says she's happy
she's not a violet sea snail
hanging upside down
in the midst of nowhere
clinging for life to
a self-made...
bubble raft
the violet sea snail
feels luckiest in the world
being able to ride
on sky's surface
away from all
human chaos
forevermore
would you still judge?
All Coincidence?
a luna moth
on moonflower
a peacock butterfly
on peacock flower
a blue bee
on bluebell
a love letter on...
forget-...
me-...
nots...
all coincidence?
Kairos
my heart was brocken
i added sunshine
it didn't work
i tried moonlight
it didn't work
i added stardust
it didn't work
i tried flowers,
breeze,
drizzle
none of them worked
then i decided
to leave it alone
to heal on its own
until one day
a few titmice
visited my house
in a fated fall
not only for food
but also to fill
my heart's cracks
with their lively love
creating a kintsugi
of carefree art
