Ribbons, 2022

red rose

in my personal diary 

leaves behind 

a stain among words 

that don’t matter anymore

Ribbons, 2021

seeking refuge
under a misty bridge
of nothingness
when the wind exposes
my primordial bones

Ribbons Spring/Summer 2019

 honour killing

under the canopy 

of pine trees 

my deep silence 

giving a voice 

to the cold wind 

 

-------

walking across 

the darkest forest 

you and I 

on the verge of annihilation 

after the confession of love 

 

-------

tell me how 

to cross it peacefully 

the path of rituals 

that denies my existence 

but demands the sacrifice 

 

-------

bow my head 

in the name of honour 

this cold evening 

I strangled my beliefs 

after losing you
