Swings
In the midst of stars, books, dreams and dust
An amicable ghost pushing the swings
Back and forth
Back and forth.
A swing that is surely more than a decade old
Carrying the anthology of local romance stories
Breakups and closures
As if marking their stories
On a steel-made infrastructure
Would make them permanent.
The ghost, now, the only one
To hear and feel the stories
Returning for the same ones
Again and again
Again and again.
