No Regrets: Poetry by Jing Xing

distance
measured by silence
stretching oceans away
no bridge.

love letter

red lipstick kiss

perfumed words inside
no reply.

costumed leading lady

pale white mask

red curtains open
no audience.

mother of too many
bearing dream children

kitchen withering hopes

no love.

Poet breathing under heavy ocean.
Star fish thrive,
suckling in life;
no regrets.

Her first forage onto the 'Net was ZoogDisney.Com. From there she quickly moved on to fanfiction and now writes mainly for Gundam Wing, dabbling now and then into poetry and original fiction.
