Maybe
 
The cloud struggled
against the sand
underneath the rain
of "no" and "yes",
forcefully treading
on the rationale
that obeys
the impasse of "maybe".
 
 
What I ask
 
A ball of threads
my prayers
whisper
frightened.
Foolish "I''s
are choked
without you ever
knowing
what I ask.
 
 
The "don'ts" and "zeros"
 
The night
that strangled
the endless moments
I had wished
to live,
passed by
without my lighting up
the candle
I had longed
to warm up
all the "don'ts" and "zeros".
 
 
Ashes
 
The fireplace
was eager
to put a fullstop,
in the sentence
where the road
of my dreams
stuck
upon the word of happiness
with sparkles
of wet logs
I collected
from the inside of me
that I dared
to turn to ashes.
