(2015)
I am stronger Than you think I am I am weaker Than I look
When I think of my mom I think of malt o meal muffins When I think of my dad Memories of a child Chasing us around the circle
The whole world Aches and groans Do you feel her pain? The human in me Wants to heal mankind
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
To be genius means To not follow the rules You don’t have to I wish to be smart But not self-important
Love is sincere Sincerely Wanting to connect Love makes you crazy Insanity that makes you fly
I find richness In the mixture In what others disdain Young people lost Between two cultures
Life is good A little luxury A cup of coffee Served with toast Consumed lazily
A conversation With a true friend Leaves your life richer Maybe with a laugh A smile on your face
I cannot let you hold my happiness For your hand to caress or to drop It is not healthy It is not safe For your happiness to depend on an… I’m taking it back but no longer r…
I spend all my time Fighting with you In my head If we fought At least it would be
The medication is not me But neither is the sickness it tre… You may hear its effects In my voice In my opinions
My grandfather told my father when he proposed to my mother on one condition
The teenage rebels All fall in line Be they hippies Goths, rockers or skaters Moving from one mould
Pragmatic me Doesn’t like this girl You can’t depend on her Too complex to understand She cries at the worst times
