Your enthusiasm exhausts me This coke is flat The bubbles disperse Leaving a sticky and sweet Aftertaste
Down to earth I am but of dust Dust particles I see floating in the air Carbon molecules
A fresh faced country girl Who pioneers on her bicycle Catches the eye Of a transplant from Houston Love begins through letters
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 parents always say We’re proud of you I am too I got out of bed I used to get so much done
I enjoy his company Riding shotgun Conversation No one to overhear Our inside jokes
Yo te amo Tres palabras Que solucionen todo Para la mujer Tan complicada
Why do we love sunsets? Distinguishing fascination What other species Must stop and stare A romantic couple
To be genius means To not follow the rules You don’t have to I wish to be smart But not self-important
Does the world need Another book? Another poem? I add one more to the pile To be left alone
I struggle to Keep it together Maxims and mottoes On repeat In my mind
A family trait Massage Is our vice No shame Take what
If I could paint a man Eyes so dark they shine Brooding and stormy Til the smile breaks through If I could paint a man
Husband and wife Companions for life Mature love that deepens And mellows with time Life’s eroding winds
