(2014)
How do I Catch your interest? Once again I know You are bored with me
Nothing makes people flee Like reading them poetry They value it in theory But please don’t make them read Surprise me with your verse
Filler words Put me to sleep Added to cushion Take away my pillow Blunt words to wake up
Escogí las palabras Más adecuadas Por lo que yo Quería decir Abrí la boca
I find richness In the mixture In what others disdain Young people lost Between two cultures
Strong hands Hold me down To the bed I say to them I have to go
Dime ¿Qué es su lengua materna? Ni inglés Ni español Sus padres no hablan inglés
A noisy restaurant Listen Focus Beyond the dishes The music
A conversation With a true friend Leaves your life richer Maybe with a laugh A smile on your face
I can feel it coming Decisions I can’t make Brain starts to freeze Fingers won’t work Sick of this disease
Apathy and incompetence In healthcare A fax they didn’t send Prescriptions delayed Labs to do again
No hay nada más sincero Que un regalo Inesperado Una carta Un chocolate
Didn’t they know that people cared? That they were loved? Why didn’t someone tell them?
I crave stability Neither wandering spirit Nor home-body Yes I’d love to travel But the foundation
Itus and Itis Crashed my party I didn’t invite them! I whisper to my sister They make my skin crawl
