(2014)
Uh-Oh! Cranky mood Throws a fit Over cereal Cheerios
He says I could never Get away with murder For I leave Pieces of me everywhere
I know it’s for the best But it still hurts Hearing mothers complain For what I would give anything fo… My husband says no
Apathy and incompetence In healthcare A fax they didn’t send Prescriptions delayed Labs to do again
My objective is selfish Not to share or be heard To get it out and move on No one seems to hear my pain No one seems to feel my pain
I cannot apologize For writing what I feel inside If it is hard to read It is harder to live I will understand
I told everyone About you The ugly beast Inside of me You can’t hide
Pragmatic me Doesn’t like this girl You can’t depend on her Too complex to understand She cries at the worst times
Beside you I am At peace Our love A connection
Life is good A little luxury A cup of coffee Served with toast Consumed lazily
A fresh faced country girl Who pioneers on her bicycle Catches the eye Of a transplant from Houston Love begins through letters
No es solo la tristeza Aunque si lo estoy No es por el desanimo Aunque si me desanimo No es tan sencillo
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
My poems are short Written at night In my head I wake at dawn Shake my memory
Restless As I lay in bed Trying to fall asleep These are my clues I might be low
