Poem
Well, I wrote this a month or so back while I was traveling (which is explicit in the content of the poem). Can't think of an appropriate title, thought of 'Travelers alone' but doesn't seem to fit that much. I'll appreciate suggestions guys.
I would like to meet you,
And fill your half empty table
Share a meal and talk of our travels
But when you look up
I see your eyes like mine,
Speak paranoia
I imagine
We’d chatter
Laugh
You up in my room
By morning
Seduced
You’d elope with my belongings
You imagine
We’d laugh
Chatter
I up in your room
By morning
Drugged, raped and robbed
You’ll find me gone
I confess, your imagined fate is worse than my fantasy
So, nothing.
We eat our meal and stay strangers.
