Candle lit Dinner

When I was a little girl

I used to think

all men who were in love

were astronauts

for all love songs

were about bringing the moon and stars

for their dearly beloved

Metaphors…

making lives …

interesting since the beginning

Now I know

men are just men

and that they do not need to be astronauts

because

if a man brought down the moon for me

the entire world would just

KAAA BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!

I guess

and there you are

mine

among all the men

mine

just mine

and no-one else’s

telling me

how you would not talk the mainstream

”I will bring you the moon”

telling me

how much of a beautiful candle I am

 how I will be lighting up people’s worlds

How I am the moon to your sky

well…

guess what darling

I refuse to be lighted up

by any other matchstick

except

for

yours

        Dear unfortunate ex-admiration to the said ex-object of admiration

        Thanks for condescending behaviour. Despite the fact I am ambiguous, I love living my life dancing between the line that separates ego and self respect as I have a huge pile of them. For now, I am an atheist in poetry, as you are god I lost and imagination I have foregone.

    Neither you nor I know each other personally like about past and all (though that doesn’t mean we don’t know each other at all)..Don’t fear, I am a magnanimous person(and i definitely don’t sing it)
    You were grovelling, weren’t you?
