Photograph by Vinnie Quan: ‘Washed awa’
Bargaining for Two Lives
How do you create memories that
Lasts? Prohibited to document,
through photos and words
Experiences that washes away
Soon under your feet. Stay
Signed with permanent black marker
That fades with soap and water. Darker
Worried about the ending
When dreams should have never started. Pretending
Begging for another minute of your time
spent together. Crime
Too proud to admit
To the fear of losing. Unfit
Other Sleepless life wired
Love and stability. Acquired
Waking up from a nightmare
Swept away from a current. Scared
About the Creator
