(2014)
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
Down to earth I am but of dust Dust particles I see floating in the air Carbon molecules
How can I write how I feel When what I feel is nothing? How can I tell you what I need, What is wrong? When what is wrong
Who am I? I am me When did I Become me? As I recall
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
Ask any female Love Is in the details I love you Three greatest words
I need to tell you How to survive With our disposition It’s okay to cry Maybe
My poems are short Written at night In my head I wake at dawn Shake my memory
My pump Constant companion Of my disease My sensor Resembles a feeding
My heart breaks A little each day For problems I can’t solve For things I can’t change All I can do is pray
Uh-Oh! Cranky mood Throws a fit Over cereal Cheerios
I feel like crap Most days I have a lot going my way I am loved I can smile
The strings that attach me To this world Ground me Yes they sometimes Keep me from flying
My soft spot My sweet boy I’d do anything for Who convinced me Little boys are the best
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
