The older
was also more fair,
prettier in an Original Barbie kind of way.
She had been sick
when her younger,
darker,

What Tangles YouI don't know what I want to write
But I will write about irritating
Do you get irritate when people give advice

Unraveling FaithI
Tangles
Life in bang - les and jangles
One angle
Unravels the tangles
One bang - le at a time

My only angle
Of untying any tangle

Even if time made it a debris jungle
Faith rescues me every time...
