Käixo (pronounced: Ky-Show)
If I could describe myself in writing I’d be poetry
Fluid and diverse
Funny but deep
The Sweetest Thing by Refugee
That’s Me
Born in the middle of summer
So I get hot, but I’m usually warm and sunny
And though the world enjoys me
I prefer my own company
Slow to speak even when my opinion is formed
Confrontation makes me anxious
But don’t push me
I remember way back when
So I live in my head
Nostalgic
If only… My constant thought
So, I write.
To escape. To feel. To live.
To give my perspective
It’s the best way to see me
Honestly
It’s the only way to reach me
Other than TV
Which stays in a 90s sitcom loop
I project some of my trauma onto my characters
And my wishes too
The happily ever after
And the book baes and boos
I just hope whatever you read from me
Feels real
Even if it’s a little far-fetched
I hope you laugh, cry, and nod your head like…
“Aye, I know somebody like that.”
