(2014)
How do you measure pain? All is relative and personal Even with one’s own self It is impossible to compare As memory distorts pain
The E’s squeak by The I’s are too excited The U’s come after Q But the A’s and the O’s They flow
May sun is warm An old friend You have missed June sun Still smiles
Stubbed toe Red light Ugly words Ugly mouth To shock
Have you ever felt A hole inside of you Something dead inside Where your heart Is supposed to be?
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 do not enjoy roller coasters I am not chicken But they say You just have to try it! So I do
Rough day Rough night If I could live In my bath Water would never
When I think of my mom I think of malt o meal muffins When I think of my dad Memories of a child Chasing us around the circle
I look away Afraid to see Flicker of nerves In their eye A clench
Who am I? I am me When did I Become me? As I recall
No es solo la tristeza Aunque si lo estoy No es por el desanimo Aunque si me desanimo No es tan sencillo
I had it all In my head And then I said Words I do not know which ones
A conversation With a true friend Leaves your life richer Maybe with a laugh A smile on your face
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
