Last Kiss from You?
A First Date Triptych: Part Three
It wasn't supposed to go this way
We were meant to have longer
Of course it went not to plan
Even without 'planning' the day
Our plan still fell apart
...
Finished cupcakes
Finally I could hold your hand
Finally, after so long being only a screen
Finally I could see your beauty
Just as we found our rhythm
Shed our nerves, awkwardness fading
Just then ... it all had to end, you had to leave
A Family thing ...
'I don't want to but I think I need to'
Holding back my unexpected tears
'I understand ... you need to go'
Why did it hit so hard?
After such little time with you
It hurt to say goodbye so soon
I wouldn't cry in front of you
I would not make you feel worse
...
Packing the car ... I would not cry
Driving me home ... I would not cry
Kissing me goodbye ... I almost cried
Once you were gone, and I was alone ...
The River Styx pales in sadness to my flowing tears
...
Will we ever get another day?
I am owed a day by the universe!
I want my time over ... our time
I need to see you ...
When do I get cupcakes again?

Why does thailand have ladyboys
Understanding Thailand's Unique Gender Diversity Thailand's kathoey community, often referred to internationally as "ladyboys," represents one of the world's most visible and culturally integrated transgender populations. To the casual observer, this might seem like a simple matter of social tolerance, but the reality is woven into a complex historical, religious, and cultural fabric that makes Thailand unique. This isn't a modern phenomenon or a tourist attraction it's a deeply rooted aspect of Thai society that challenges Western binary notions of gender.

Bangkok ladyboys
When you think of Bangkok, a few iconic images likely spring to mind: golden temples, bustling street markets, the smell of sizzling pad thai, and dazzling nightlife. And within that vibrant tapestry, the presence of ladyboys known in Thailand as kathoey is a visible and often misunderstood part of the cultural landscape.
