Soft-light,
the earth has plucked you
out of orbit;
shattered your silver mirror
to to see his own reflection
brimming tidal
in your eyes. he has claimed
your crater-edge bones and
for a handful of moments,
called it his right.
perhaps, he fancied
himself a luna-lover,
or desired
an eclipse in your
soul so you only see
him.
your mother, she warned you
of first love and broken hearts,
since aren’t they the same thing,
after all?
this universe cannot make you
listen, and wait -
hear how the cosmos
hold fast to their breath, stardust
stopped, galaxies motionless;
they know, i know
the inevitable is coming.
for the earth revolves reverently
around Apollo’s light,
and the moon
dances dizzily in earth’s wake,
but never, never will the
earth orbit the moon,
or love
you.
(this stellar seduction will not last)

Love Me Like The Stars
My heart is a galaxy
swelling with shooting
stars and passing comets,
rocky asteroids and alien
worlds; stardust pumps
violently through my veins
when you touch me so.
I become a supernova
when our lips meet.
Literature
Fragile Apologies
You folded
pastel I'm sorrys
into delicate bouquets
of papery origami flowers.
-but pages crumble
and papercuts kiss my fingers-

Reluctant Heart
Her eyes were doused in heavy mascara
running down cheeks so flawed and broken.
She wasn't in search of a lover that night
Not a heart of emotion as she wandered the streets;
Instead her eyes searched beneath the blanket of rain
for someone who was equally broken inside...
As deep down she knew, beneath her heart reluctantly beating;
That only the shattered could share in this pain.
'Reluctant Heart' -- by Word of Chen
