(2015)
My parents always say We’re proud of you I am too I got out of bed I used to get so much done
Steamroller Of life Passed by Feeling down Squished
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
Does it hurt? When you prick your finger No I do this just for fun Our fingers lose feeling
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
Strong hands Hold me down To the bed I say to them I have to go
Ask any female Love Is in the details I love you Three greatest words
Does the world need Another book? Another poem? I add one more to the pile To be left alone
Down to earth I am but of dust Dust particles I see floating in the air Carbon molecules
Itchy It has to come off Nerves Makes me pick His look
Water Beach pools and fountains Rivers creeks and waterfalls The sound The feel Floating Weightless
A noisy restaurant Listen Focus Beyond the dishes The music
Pretty and dainty Rich girl feet Meant to be Beside the pool They don’t like to work
A healthy pancreas Is like a transmission Seamlessly shifting gears In type 2 diabetics Wear and tear
Love is sincere Sincerely Wanting to connect Love makes you crazy Insanity that makes you fly
