This little town
The moment the wheels,
took off from the landing strip.
I prayed to God,
the aircraft’s would fall from the sky.
Burning every last piece of me,
to the ground.
I have to stop traveling,
to this place of pure destruction.
Where their words eat at me,
like poisonous snakes.
No matter how many people,
I love and care for,
this place was never a home.
It was always meant,
to be a pitstop,
on the roads I travel.
I know I’m meant for something better.

There is something so journalistic about your work here – you are jotting down impressions as if making essay of your life experience.
I want to turn the page my sibling.
Oh wow! Thank you so much for that feedback. I don’t know why, but I feel like I have to write about reality. It’s not that I don’t have the imagination to write something very different. I just feel this way makes it easier to touch upon something that we all feel in certain moments in our lives. And that’s the kind of connection I wanna create with my writing I believe.
