a cup of poems

Sometimes all you can do is stand still below the hot stream of the shower, holding your skin in an embrace, absently staring at the tiles, letting the tears melt into your cheeks.

I’m a coward fleeing from the scene of my very own fraud.

They always say blood is thicker than water. But they should also mention how some days it’s one of the heaviest things to carry.

I was seven years old when my grandmother taught me how to take care of a plant. It was early in the afternoon when she called my name. "See the withered parts?” She asked me and I stared at the plant, its sagging frame barely upright, "You need to cut off the dead leaves. You have to remove what can no longer be saved so the rest of it can live." I stared back at her, startled: "But it will hurt her.” My grandmother with her stubborn nature, looked at me and said, "It’s going to hurt her more if you leave them."

“One day, you find yourself facing the possibility that the friendly fingers that nursed your wounds were the ones who pulled the trigger. After that, you are never the same again. There are few things as devastating as the encounter with the face of absolute betrayal, but there is nothing as liberating as the truth that comes with it.”
