#Suppertime
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
It’s not that I’m sad Though I am It’s not that I’m discouraged Though I am It soaks deeper
I am a consumer Female Twenties I buy Cheap clothes and lattes
The whole world Aches and groans Do you feel her pain? The human in me Wants to heal mankind
The human heart ...leaps and jumps ...races and sings ...sighs and groans The treacherous heart can
La presión atrapada Busca por donde salir Tapo mi boca Se me sale por los ojos Tapo mis ojos
Your pain is far away I hear it But I do not feel it Move closer Let me know you’re here to stay
Restless As I lay in bed Trying to fall asleep These are my clues I might be low
To love reading Writing and words And not be able to Communicate Frustrated
A healthy pancreas Is like a transmission Seamlessly shifting gears In type 2 diabetics Wear and tear
Hospitality To love a stranger It need not be much For one who has little Will appreciate it
My poems are short Written at night In my head I wake at dawn Shake my memory
Scratchy plaid blanket Red with yellow stripes Hot and itchy underneath Claustrophobia strikes Purple and blue prisms
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
Some I like to share Fresh out of the oven Don’t let it get cold That’s why I wrote it Emotions in that moment
