(2014)
I am unique In so many ways But while variety excites What we look for Is our common thread
Well-intentioned stranger Eyeing me limp through HEB Why would you ask If I stepped on a nail? How do you know
Would I rather be A younger me? More productive Stronger Would i have to give up
The pressure inside Is building It comes out through my eyes I stop up the tears It comes out through my nose
A healthy pancreas Is like a transmission Seamlessly shifting gears In type 2 diabetics Wear and tear
A noisy restaurant Listen Focus Beyond the dishes The music
Destruction is fun But cannot be undone Smashed Trashed Crumpled
The whole world Aches and groans Do you feel her pain? The human in me Wants to heal mankind
A conversation With a true friend Leaves your life richer Maybe with a laugh A smile on your face
I told everyone About you The ugly beast Inside of me You can’t hide
I need to tell you How to survive With our disposition It’s okay to cry Maybe
The pine trees Reach up On both sides Of the road Telling me
How do you describe A man so dramatic? You can recognize him From afar with his hat Always the gentleman
I spend all my time Fighting with you In my head If we fought At least it would be
If you find someone That can do it Better than you Get them on your team
