(2015)
Steamroller Of life Passed by Feeling down Squished
A palomino gallops Beside the highway Look out the window Rides over green hills Through yellow flowers
Husband and wife Companions for life Mature love that deepens And mellows with time Life’s eroding winds
Itus and Itis Crashed my party I didn’t invite them! I whisper to my sister They make my skin crawl
I can feel it coming Decisions I can’t make Brain starts to freeze Fingers won’t work Sick of this disease
To be genius means To not follow the rules You don’t have to I wish to be smart But not self-important
Are you ever tired Of just being you? Did you ever Want to be Someone new?
No es solo la tristeza Aunque si lo estoy No es por el desanimo Aunque si me desanimo No es tan sencillo
Mis manchas de Bambi Manchas blancas Cubren mi cuerpo La gente se queda mirando Pero no les da asco
When the emotion comes up It feels like heartburn Like acid Clenching my throat My ears go watery
I’m watching a woman in a bikini In great shape with a swollen bell… Play with her puppy named Gatsby A Hispanic family comes The little girl dips her feet in
My sister’s cookies Chocolate chip Got my nephew to Say her name For the first time
I am a consumer Female Twenties I buy Cheap clothes and lattes
She is no longer Part of my life I’ve moved on My life is full With friends
I’ve known Deep inside All along My value That I matter
