Dear Esme,
Naked and Shallow
the words of men,
distractive nevertheless.
Bluntly misunderstanding their habitat
bluntly misunderstanding you, Esme.
Driven under rocks by the same will to live,
handed great despair on your longest sleeve.
Rendering the heart as cold as
the time of thieves.
Dear Esme,
Your mouth seal shut what your eyes see.
Eyes clog up the monsoon,
Voices echo,
“Screw the society!!”
Oh! Esme,
Insatiable need to be a unicorn.
An Olympic game in your mother board.
Cold, Blue
Unnerving melancholy …..
You are LIFE, Esme.
