It’s when my serotonin
Dances with dopamine,
And endorphins meet up with oxytocin
At their favorite bar for happy hour
That I think of you.
//
When the scent of fresh brewed coffee
Transports me back to the old diner
Where we shared booths and breakfasts...
//
How my laughter feels
Like the aftershocks
Of your jolting jokes,
Timed like earthquakes.
//
Sadness
Does not spark the memories...
When I was with you,
I smiled.
//
So now,
When my mouth curls up
Like an upside down rainbow,
Your face returns.
//
But as I step towards you,
The rug pulls out from underneath
And my feet land in the quicksand
Hiding below...
But I do not struggle.
//
Let it take me slowly,
So I can stare into your eyes
And allow my gaze to linger
Until I am swallowed whole.

I have been writing poetry and lyrics since I was a child. I have recently started writing short scripts for “found footage” horror TikToks. I dream of writing books and full length screenplays. Thanks for being in this community with me!
