Traces of your Love – Friday Fun #1 (A Collaboration)

yikici — Fri, 29 Mar 2013 08:21:26 PDT

Traces of me lay bare, Elevated, unaware. Empirical nuances – filter through. You rarely notice, it’s cruel. You’ve grown immune to my needs, Watching as destruction plants it’s seed.

I’m coming, he said But he never did. I promise, he said But his promise fibbed. I’ll hold you, he said But his arms didn’t reach. I’ll protect you, he said But his strength breached. I’ll love you, he said But his heart wasn’t hers. I’ll wed you, he said But his ring she didn’t read more

Silent Battles

yikici — Tue, 26 Mar 2013 08:12:00 PDT

Can you hear that? That silence which pierces through your gut. Can you feel how it curls into your heart with a callous tap? Do you tread on that tightrope? The one which stretches from within -a space between yourself and my soul, thin. Can you hear that crawling thought? It edges slowly when one’s read more

When Tree’s Come to Life…

yikici — Mon, 14 May 2012 23:22:58 PDT
