(2014)
My pump Constant companion Of my disease My sensor Resembles a feeding
Your enthusiasm exhausts me This coke is flat The bubbles disperse Leaving a sticky and sweet Aftertaste
A conversation With a true friend Leaves your life richer Maybe with a laugh A smile on your face
Uh-Oh! Cranky mood Throws a fit Over cereal Cheerios
I wallow in my sadness As it pools up It has not swallowed me Who floats above its surface This surface
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
Traffic Irritation becomes a nightmare As the lines start to squiggle Bending in and out And the world starts its attack
If I was in a beauty pageant My talent would be 'Lefty who writes upside-down’ Beside the contestant Who burps her ABC’s
I had it all In my head And then I said Words I do not know which ones
You might know her As blonde eyes Or as the sister who bakes cookies But you see I don’t write this
Desperate for his attention Knowing it will drive him away Jealous of a game - how lame Choking self-esteem where I lay Desperate for his affection
Dime ¿Qué es su lengua materna? Ni inglés Ni español Sus padres no hablan inglés
I am sorry That I cannot be happier I know that I’d be prettier If I smiled If I could smile
Stubbed toe Red light Ugly words Ugly mouth To shock
Restless As I lay in bed Trying to fall asleep These are my clues I might be low
