(2014)
Water Beach pools and fountains Rivers creeks and waterfalls The sound The feel Floating Weightless
Tomorrow Has not yet come It’s promises yet to be broken Tomorrow Is bigger
Good secret Bubbles inside Let me out Bad secret Indigestion
I will be Forever in debt To my mother Any gift Would come up short
If I could draw a tree In all it’s complexity Would you be impressed? If I could draw a human face It would be but a trace
Apathy and incompetence In healthcare A fax they didn’t send Prescriptions delayed Labs to do again
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
Look in the mirror What is it you see? Hazel eyes above your Favorite black dress Looks clean and fresh
She is no longer Part of my life I’ve moved on My life is full With friends
Turkey and dressing Loud and overwhelming Opinions and food fly Green bean casserole Too much laughter
I had it all In my head And then I said Words I do not know which ones
I need to tell you How to survive With our disposition It’s okay to cry Maybe
Bags full of diapers Cars waiting in line Smell coming from the load Ashamed it was mine He noticed my insulin pump
I told everyone About you The ugly beast Inside of me You can’t hide
Scratchy plaid blanket Red with yellow stripes Hot and itchy underneath Claustrophobia strikes Purple and blue prisms
