(2014)
Who am I? I am me When did I Become me? As I recall
I am a consumer Female Twenties I buy Cheap clothes and lattes
¿Te fue mal el día? Me va mal también a mi Dos vidas entretejidas Irrevocablemente Te cargo a ti encima
Are you ever tired Of just being you? Did you ever Want to be Someone new?
The pressure inside Is building It comes out through my eyes I stop up the tears It comes out through my nose
No hay nada más sincero Que un regalo Inesperado Una carta Un chocolate
Hospitality To love a stranger It need not be much For one who has little Will appreciate it
Why do we love sunsets? Distinguishing fascination What other species Must stop and stare A romantic couple
No es solo la tristeza Aunque si lo estoy No es por el desanimo Aunque si me desanimo No es tan sencillo
Beautiful legs The right shape and curve Olive color without the green That tans and doesn’t burn Until you see
If food is poetry The flavors The smells Singing in harmony Is poetry food?
I cannot apologize For writing what I feel inside If it is hard to read It is harder to live I will understand
What if one day I wasn’t there for you? And you were left needing me If I wasn’t there When you woke up
How do you measure pain? All is relative and personal Even with one’s own self It is impossible to compare As memory distorts pain
Left on a leash Is no way to live He disappeared I like to imagine He’s running in a field
