Romantic
Romantic poetry originated in the late 1700s as a response to Enlightenment and Industrial Revolution. It emphasizes feelings, creativity, and individuality, and praises nature and the supernatural. Romantic poets frequently explored topics such as love, beauty, and the sublime, and their works are renowned for their expressive and poetic language.
What's with these deleted kisses?
As of late i'm being increasingly soothingly filled with mornings
these being the afterthoughts of full nights of pulling the map of you from under my feet
just in time
in the brink of time
for it's becoming so daft a nuisance since your geographic features started to ambush me and circle me and bend my shape in a nightly basis
with its sighs and tides of deleted kisses that i miss so much
so unwritten
so so sunk in black clothes
in a blank smile in tight lips
so unkissed
with its four corners and twelve ropes confining the mastermind's works
too much rope for a proper hanging though i guess
with its remainders of untold ranges
no worries though
i'll make a point of readjusting the prairie tales and see what's gonna be
heads or tails
with its rivers splashing my mind like they're pouring liquor too sour to take in too tempting to refuse
with its word-slinging craters driving fire-like trains insane
guess what though?
i'll listen carefully
i'll listen intently
see
i'll never get used to pacing along the platform with due haste
even when there's no scheduled departures in sight that is
i know nothing
i do know though it all could so so easily be a figment of my unprocessed enlightenment seasons
so
beware
beware of casually landed and taken shots

Frozen Memories with Hannah
I had a romantic winter with Hannah.
The warmth of her presence felt really cozy,
like an ice vacuum sheltering sunny Fontana.
Each wintry split second with her felt rosy.
Her soft spoken voice kept corroding my world.
It kept my frozen body covered and walled.
Our stay together was a real permafrost.
It did birth memories that will never be lost.
The frost of our romantic adventure was sweet.
It re-echoes every passing moment like a tweet.
Our frosted experience remains indelible.
To say the least, Hannah is adorable.
My memories with her remain frozen with time,
all of which I have penned down as a love rhyme.
