(2015)
Dedicated to my sister and our late night talks when this became my catchphrase.
I enjoy his company Riding shotgun Conversation No one to overhear Our inside jokes
I am a consumer Female Twenties I buy Cheap clothes and lattes
Left on a leash Is no way to live He disappeared I like to imagine He’s running in a field
Hillary’s beautiful Rose Bumpy’s favorite princess My mini-me, my little lion Cute button nose Framed by red hair
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
Husband and wife Companions for life Mature love that deepens And mellows with time Life’s eroding winds
A palomino gallops Beside the highway Look out the window Rides over green hills Through yellow flowers
If food is poetry The flavors The smells Singing in harmony Is poetry food?
Blonde eyes To match her hair Life is mean She counts her blessings Hopes for the best
I will be Forever in debt To my mother Any gift Would come up short
Manos fuertes No me sueltan De la cama Yo les digo Me tengo que ir
Filler words Put me to sleep Added to cushion Take away my pillow Blunt words to wake up
I would never choose To eat a granola bar Or peanut butter crackers Though I eat them All of the time
My soft spot My sweet boy I’d do anything for Who convinced me Little boys are the best
It’s not that I’m sad Though I am It’s not that I’m discouraged Though I am It soaks deeper
