Poems
Ladybug
i
called upon my daddy
ladybugs
are crawling over me
come
to rescue!
but
you are silent
no
words from you
I
cried out again
Daddy!
i am suffering
sing me a lullaby to soothe me
whisper
a word to my thirst
but
you are silent
no
words from you
Oh,
daddy, how much i need you
don't
you know
You
promised, and I waited
daddy
is a phantom
only
appears in dreams
Kiss
me daddy, one last kiss
and don't wake me up from
this dream
*I bought a ladybug lamp next to my bed
Does he know I lay on piles of thorns
from roses I chose?
Does he know that I am asphyxiated?
Lend me your lung please
let's breathe through one lung
and hypnotize scars
to transform into dancing memories
of fire.
