(2014)
My heart breaks A little each day For problems I can’t solve For things I can’t change All I can do is pray
I struggle to Keep it together Maxims and mottoes On repeat In my mind
If I could draw a tree In all it’s complexity Would you be impressed? If I could draw a human face It would be but a trace
Itus and Itis Crashed my party I didn’t invite them! I whisper to my sister They make my skin crawl
I spend all my time Fighting with you In my head If we fought At least it would be
Bags full of diapers Cars waiting in line Smell coming from the load Ashamed it was mine He noticed my insulin pump
This world is covered in bias It’s all over you It’s all over me too This world is covered in bias It shades our words
The whole world Aches and groans Do you feel her pain? The human in me Wants to heal mankind
Destruction is fun But cannot be undone Smashed Trashed Crumpled
I cannot apologize For writing what I feel inside If it is hard to read It is harder to live I will understand
La presión atrapada Busca por donde salir Tapo mi boca Se me sale por los ojos Tapo mis ojos
The E’s squeak by The I’s are too excited The U’s come after Q But the A’s and the O’s They flow
Antisocial tendencies Amplified by sickness I can people watch Yet I can’t people talk I am lonely
Yo te amo Tres palabras Que solucionen todo Para la mujer Tan complicada
If food is poetry The flavors The smells Singing in harmony Is poetry food?
