(2015)
I look away Afraid to see Flicker of nerves In their eye A clench
Que te cuentan un chiste Las palabras se traducen Pero el humor no se puede Por si no lo entiendes Ríete
My objective is selfish Not to share or be heard To get it out and move on No one seems to hear my pain No one seems to feel my pain
If you find someone That can do it Better than you Get them on your team
I will be Forever in debt To my mother Any gift Would come up short
Look in the mirror What is it you see? Hazel eyes above your Favorite black dress Looks clean and fresh
My sister’s cookies Chocolate chip Got my nephew to Say her name For the first time
A family trait Massage Is our vice No shame Take what
Left on a leash Is no way to live He disappeared I like to imagine He’s running in a field
You might know her As blonde eyes Or as the sister who bakes cookies But you see I don’t write this
The more you treat me like a nag The more I become one I’m sorry if I micromanage Your clean clothes Your hot meals
May sun is warm An old friend You have missed June sun Still smiles
How do you describe A man so dramatic? You can recognize him From afar with his hat Always the gentleman
I am unique In so many ways But while variety excites What we look for Is our common thread
If I was in a beauty pageant My talent would be 'Lefty who writes upside-down’ Beside the contestant Who burps her ABC’s
