A collection of writing by Dominic Riccitello — intimate conversations, personal essays, and poetic reflections on relationships, loss, and self-discovery.

veins

under darkened rainfall
i forget the hour
something in the static
calls me by a name again

glass hums against my skin
the air, electric
a pulse between what is
and what could never

the lights smear into motion
each reflection half-alive
as if the city remembers
what i keep trying to lose

you stand somewhere
between signal and echo
half-formed in the hum
of a world still buffering

i keep walking
past the wet blur of neon veins
as if a street would answer you
as if it ever could

  1. Dear Dominic
    It was essential to spend some time pondering on the post. Therefore, I am responding late. Your post is marvellous, as usual.
    Thanks for liking my post, Reunion. 😊💖❤️🌹
