Th Gaze
Untrustworthy eye Looks At my outsides My integrity unquestioned by me But the eye what does it think? My choices, conformed? No, not conformed Wait There’s a blur A space in which maybe I’d do things a little different if the lense did not exist I make calls to persuade the lense to look away
And Still Do
The things that once brought me meaning still bring meaning The pressure only added value now they glisten and blind me and turn me over as if I’ll never be good enough for them but I still value those things the things that once had meaning and still do -Saschia

While the world wastes away on a monotonous routine step outside of it all and kiss me hard. Don’t kiss me hard only after everything is falling apart Kiss me hard when everything is going right There’s no point in waiting This is what life is: connections, honesty, bravery Show up, kiss me. It’s notContinue reading “Kiss Me”

We Us Ours
These arms are meant to be wrapped around you These lips are meant to be pressed against your skin This mind is meant to be mingled with yours

Let’s Just Be
The push and pull centered me I’ve accepted me I’ve loved me Even in uncertainty My arms are open to the things meant for me My eyes are closed to keep my heart open I will be Ok -Saschia
Us and Our Art Space
You’re the words I want to hear and the voice I seek in the darkness. You’re the first person I think to call when I have good news And the one I run to with my bad thoughts I can’t help it Separate lives, shared thoughts Working together to create something With nothing but theContinue reading “Us and Our Art Space”
