In Experience

I was the expected son whose voice became his father’s.
I’ve held the hands of my grandpa
I lost my temper to become better.
I tell you sincerely, I still think about my dead dog and her mother.
Once I broke my hand after dislocating it and not letting it heal on same day.
Twice I’ve smoked the end of a burnt cigarette.
I bought water during a trip, paid but never got the bottled water.
I love to kiss one of my characters.
I’ve been scared of cockroaches since I was a baby
I’ve seen the sour part of a man’s heart
I’m a traveler
I learned to control my mind during a decent conversation
I’ve heard the superstition of having sex in a car
I’ve had some slaps to my face for a fight that wasn’t mine.
I once visited a female toilet.
And only once have I been a virgin.
I have a box of secrets and a closet of skeletons.
I witnessed three popes and I’m not yet 30.
I will testify all the wrongs I did as a child if I’d get a billion dollars.
I have stories about the woman that came into my life like an eclipse
I found love in words so I married her.
