(2015)
May sun is warm An old friend You have missed June sun Still smiles
Scratchy plaid blanket Red with yellow stripes Hot and itchy underneath Claustrophobia strikes Purple and blue prisms
If I could make you smile Just once Sincerity From an appreciative heart It would make all of it worthwhile
Stubbed toe Red light Ugly words Ugly mouth To shock
Escogí las palabras Más adecuadas Por lo que yo Quería decir Abrí la boca
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
Beside you I am At peace Our love A connection
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
The pine trees Reach up On both sides Of the road Telling me
I am stronger Than you think I am I am weaker Than I look
Restless As I lay in bed Trying to fall asleep These are my clues I might be low
When the emotion comes up It feels like heartburn Like acid Clenching my throat My ears go watery
Desperate for his attention Knowing it will drive him away Jealous of a game - how lame Choking self-esteem where I lay Desperate for his affection
My sister’s cookies Chocolate chip Got my nephew to Say her name For the first time
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
