A Feeling's Flight

Reuben Galvez

As much as I'd want This feeling to stay It will go flying away But it will return to nest On the branch of my heart And it shall find good rest

This feeling shall tell Of a life I will not live Of a beauty I cannot bear Of magic that I' ve missed Through wordless hums And pleasant lulls

yours, in wisteria

Bettina Basilio

this is the land where grows wisteria and hysteria makes itself a long-living home in my Heart when I look at you because you’re brighter than what cannot blind me still, I teach a star to say “hello” when I teach myself to look

the immortality of a body means nothing— so long as Pain is granted the same fate —so I cannot uproot myself from this garden of thorns they have planted right where my bare feet hit the ground running but I can choose where my eyes run to (and you know there is nobody else I’d rather run to but you.)
