Human Beings

Posted on February 3, 2022August 2, 2022 by Erin B.
The worthless truth about the world
is that God is the meaning
of life
instead of other human beings.

The Word Love

Posted on May 2, 2021October 22, 2022 by Erin B.
The word love
is the idea of fate and magic
and yet,
this miraculous blind optimism
to be loved
by one human
I am afraid of.

Secrets

Posted on April 21, 2021August 2, 2022 by Erin B.
Nobody thinks about human life,
that we kill people with secrets.
There is no horror,
that is the appalling thing.
The emotional reaction over it
will be infinitely
bored, casual, and complacent.

I Never Did

Posted on July 30, 2020October 22, 2022 by Erin B.
I didn't want him
to kiss me.
I don't love him.
I never did.
I deluded myself,
made him into a new man -
not a human, fallible being.

Silence of a City

Posted on May 10, 2020August 4, 2022 by Erin B.
Pause, peace, rest.
The silence of a city,
had to be the regeneration
of the human race.

Human Nature

Posted on May 3, 2020August 4, 2022 by Erin B.
I was wakened.
My happiness does not interest him.
I selfish, got up and
left him.
It's human nature.
