Beside you I am At peace Our love A connection
Dime ¿Qué es su lengua materna? Ni inglés Ni español Sus padres no hablan inglés
If you find someone That can do it Better than you Get them on your team
Look in the mirror What is it you see? Hazel eyes above your Favorite black dress Looks clean and fresh
You must commit To an outfit Where are you going? In sporty yoga pants Athletic top
Tomorrow Has not yet come It’s promises yet to be broken Tomorrow Is bigger
I love to hear poetry read Rather than performed I love to hear each word Appreciated Rather than memorized
I don’t expect Diabetes education For the public But chances are You know one
I cannot apologize For writing what I feel inside If it is hard to read It is harder to live I will understand
Turkey and dressing Loud and overwhelming Opinions and food fly Green bean casserole Too much laughter
Algunos me gusta compartir Calientitos Justo cuando salgan del horno Que no se enfríe Por eso lo escribí
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
Bags full of diapers Cars waiting in line Smell coming from the load Ashamed it was mine He noticed my insulin pump

Scratchy plaid blanket Red with yellow stripes Hot and itchy underneath Claustrophobia strikes Purple and blue prisms
