(2014)
Filler words Put me to sleep Added to cushion Take away my pillow Blunt words to wake up
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
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
How do you describe A man so dramatic? You can recognize him From afar with his hat Always the gentleman
Why do we love sunsets? Distinguishing fascination What other species Must stop and stare A romantic couple
Husband and wife Companions for life Mature love that deepens And mellows with time Life’s eroding winds
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
I would never choose To eat a granola bar Or peanut butter crackers Though I eat them All of the time
He says I could never Get away with murder For I leave Pieces of me everywhere
Would I rather be A younger me? More productive Stronger Would i have to give up
Scratchy plaid blanket Red with yellow stripes Hot and itchy underneath Claustrophobia strikes Purple and blue prisms
Destruction is fun But cannot be undone Smashed Trashed Crumpled
I am stronger Than you think I am I am weaker Than I look
Blonde eyes To match her hair Life is mean She counts her blessings Hopes for the best
