(2015)
Scratchy plaid blanket Red with yellow stripes Hot and itchy underneath Claustrophobia strikes Purple and blue prisms
If you find someone That can do it Better than you Get them on your team
When the emotion comes up It feels like heartburn Like acid Clenching my throat My ears go watery
Antes lograba tanto Metía horas Sacando lo máximo De cada minuto No he cambiado
Uh-Oh! Cranky mood Throws a fit Over cereal Cheerios
We Are me and you Together Two hearts Two minds
Dime ¿Qué es su lengua materna? Ni inglés Ni español Sus padres no hablan inglés
The strings that attach me To this world Ground me Yes they sometimes Keep me from flying
Escogí las palabras Más adecuadas Por lo que yo Quería decir Abrí la boca
Your pain is far away I hear it But I do not feel it Move closer Let me know you’re here to stay
I can feel it coming Decisions I can’t make Brain starts to freeze Fingers won’t work Sick of this disease
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
I love to hear poetry read Rather than performed I love to hear each word Appreciated Rather than memorized
Hospitality To love a stranger It need not be much For one who has little Will appreciate it
My soft spot My sweet boy I’d do anything for Who convinced me Little boys are the best
