(2015)
Rough day Rough night If I could live In my bath Water would never
Who am I? I am me When did I Become me? As I recall
¿Te duele Cuándo piques tu dedo? No Lo hago por pura diversión Lo que duele
It’s not that I’m sad Though I am It’s not that I’m discouraged Though I am It soaks deeper
You must commit To an outfit Where are you going? In sporty yoga pants Athletic top
Would I rather be A younger me? More productive Stronger Would i have to give up
When I think of my mom I think of malt o meal muffins When I think of my dad Memories of a child Chasing us around the circle
I am unique In so many ways But while variety excites What we look for Is our common thread
Mis manchas de Bambi Manchas blancas Cubren mi cuerpo La gente se queda mirando Pero no les da asco
To be genius means To not follow the rules You don’t have to I wish to be smart But not self-important
He says I could never Get away with murder For I leave Pieces of me everywhere
When the emotion comes up It feels like heartburn Like acid Clenching my throat My ears go watery
I cannot apologize For writing what I feel inside If it is hard to read It is harder to live I will understand
I wallow in my sadness As it pools up It has not swallowed me Who floats above its surface This surface
She is no longer Part of my life I’ve moved on My life is full With friends
