(2014)
The pressure inside Is building It comes out through my eyes I stop up the tears It comes out through my nose
To be genius means To not follow the rules You don’t have to I wish to be smart But not self-important
I cannot divide My heart Into four pieces Equally Geometrically
No hay nada más sincero Que un regalo Inesperado Una carta Un chocolate
Didn’t they know that people cared? That they were loved? Why didn’t someone tell them?
The ugliest shade Of green We envy The car The job
No pido disculpas Por escribir Lo que siento Lo que llevo adentro Lo que vivo
It’s not pretty When I cry People get almost as embarrassed as I
Why do we love sunsets? Distinguishing fascination What other species Must stop and stare A romantic couple
Desperate for his attention Knowing it will drive him away Jealous of a game - how lame Choking self-esteem where I lay Desperate for his affection
May sun is warm An old friend You have missed June sun Still smiles
The human heart ...leaps and jumps ...races and sings ...sighs and groans The treacherous heart can
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
Stubbed toe Red light Ugly words Ugly mouth To shock
Well-intentioned stranger Eyeing me limp through HEB Why would you ask If I stepped on a nail? How do you know
