(2015)
Rough day Rough night If I could live In my bath Water would never
The more you treat me like a nag The more I become one I’m sorry if I micromanage Your clean clothes Your hot meals
Beside you I am At peace Our love A connection
My pump Constant companion Of my disease My sensor Resembles a feeding
Turkey and dressing Loud and overwhelming Opinions and food fly Green bean casserole Too much laughter
This world is covered in bias It’s all over you It’s all over me too This world is covered in bias It shades our words
You must commit To an outfit Where are you going? In sporty yoga pants Athletic top
Inspirational quotes Are full of crap Whatever meaning Is lost In the sea
A conversation With a true friend Leaves your life richer Maybe with a laugh A smile on your face
How do you measure pain? All is relative and personal Even with one’s own self It is impossible to compare As memory distorts pain
A fresh faced country girl Who pioneers on her bicycle Catches the eye Of a transplant from Houston Love begins through letters
Would I rather be A younger me? More productive Stronger Would i have to give up
Steamroller Of life Passed by Feeling down Squished
My parents always say We’re proud of you I am too I got out of bed I used to get so much done
Apathy and incompetence In healthcare A fax they didn’t send Prescriptions delayed Labs to do again
