june 24th

I have carved your name in ebonywood,
Solid black with spidery rifts.
Stick figures dancing across the length and breadth;
Essence
Of scented sandalwood.
You will run your fingers across these scars
Until
The numbness gets imprinted.

  2. Wow!

    That was beautiful.

    But sometimes you get too numb that you get tired of that sensation or that numbness slowly kills all of it away. Giving way to a new you.

  3. Nicely done. 'Essence of scented sandalwood' - is weird and exotic at the same time.
