They are living in blind optimism
with the ugly rat race,
desperate suburbanites who
never could quite understand
beauty or love.

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.

Boy Meets Girl

Posted on April 18, 2021October 22, 2022 by Erin B.
If one looks at that unreal reality
of boy meets girl,
boy falls in love with girl;
the boy in question happens to
set the standard
for all lovers to come.
