As I linger
By the illuminating fire
My mind acquires
A sudden urge
A sudden lust
To spend some time with you
This is a formal request for action
I must behest to you
There is a drive
That is deeper
Than any itch or thirst
Far beyond a strong wish
My soul
Aches and craves passion
That is everlasting
Beyond every appetite
An urge of pure delight
Hoping and pining
For just one look
A sign of affection to quench my hunger
These hankering thoughts
Have left me longing for
Sweet summer night rendezvous
Tapping into our yen
Let’s descend into our urges
No more yearning to explore

Grandmother
Ever since I can remember, I've called my grandmother Abuela. At the time I didn't know it was a Spanish word. We have no Spanish origins. Once I learned that Abuela is a grandmother in Spanish I thought it was hilarious that I named my grandmother grandmother. Everyone thought it was cute so it stuck. I miss her so much so here's my poem dedicated to her.

Day 4 of Quitting
If this is how sobriety feels, maybe it’s better to go through life a little buzzed… this, along with other hits like, I want to kill myself, I wish I was dead, and I’m going to throw myself off a bridge have been the only thoughts on rotation these past few days. I promise myself that if, in a month, I still feel like this (‘this’ meaning despondent, full of rage, and simultaneously numb) I can go back to smoking. Until mid-February though? Nicotine is off the table.
