Grey Area
there are those places
dusty in their quietude,
untouched by appearance
but hold a lot of memories in the heart.
is it the time absence hit its foot by the door
and made me remember your birthday?
is it the morning you woke up and left your head
in dreamland?
everyone remembers your dance steps—
the ones at night by the fireplace
our bodies kept warm while running away
from the cold.
do not forget those places
that make my name a tsunami in your ears,
do not forget those places with no color but shades of my skin type
do not forget that heaven is spelt as my name
as a whispering for the winds to carry.
it may look as it does
but there are still pieces missing
and parts of them are of you.
