(2015)
I cannot apologize For writing what I feel inside If it is hard to read It is harder to live I will understand
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
I look away Afraid to see Flicker of nerves In their eye A clench
By nature high-strung But I thought I was strong If not physically, emotionally For things to roll off my back Be mature and take the high road
I struggle to Keep it together Maxims and mottoes On repeat In my mind
My poems are short Written at night In my head I wake at dawn Shake my memory
Does it hurt? When you prick your finger No I do this just for fun Our fingers lose feeling
Husband and wife Companions for life Mature love that deepens And mellows with time Life’s eroding winds
If I could make you smile Just once Sincerity From an appreciative heart It would make all of it worthwhile
Manos fuertes No me sueltan De la cama Yo les digo Me tengo que ir
The medication is not me But neither is the sickness it tre… You may hear its effects In my voice In my opinions
Why do we love sunsets? Distinguishing fascination What other species Must stop and stare A romantic couple
An idea In my head Falls flat On paper Read it
I feel like crap Most days I have a lot going my way I am loved I can smile
