When Boy Meets GirlSo much can change so quickly in a life.
Love is the path, not a destination…
When feelings become thoughts of “man and wife,”
It takes blood and tears, and perspiration.
We think this might be where we’ll always be,
As peaks and valleys make us whine and groan.
The road ahead is truly hard to see
But hardships lighten when you’re...

Curly haired girlShe loves to twirl and jump
expressing without a care
This is a girl that has big curly hair
her eyes filled with life, makes me want to hug her with all my might.
She can’t sit still, always has something to do
Using her imagination, how I wish I could look inside too.
She’s grown...

Calendar GirlYou celebrate your Death-Day every year,
a “selfie” trampling on your grave-to-be,
without your knowing. Anniversary?
Through predetermined locks you have to steer.
As flotsam tumbles over each steep weir
in transit to the dark and formless sea,
you’ll pass the date of your finality
repeatedly, before the end-of-pier.
That day will dawn. It really will. The rows
of serried numbers, rigid, unforgiving,
that fill...

Broken GirlAlcohol to numb the pains.
Cigarettes to taste something other than hate.
Sex to escape the constant loud voices in my head.
Makeup to hide the broken girl inside.
So put together, so stylish, so grown up and mature. Little did they know that girl was always manic, depressed, and anxious....

I am the girl who loves too muchI am the girl who loves too much.
The one who bakes brownies instead of saying,
"I miss you,"
because sometimes sugar feels safer than truth.
The one who writes long birthday cards
and sends postcards filled with drawings,
because my words can be too heavy,
but my heart refuses to stay silent.
I fill pages with prayers,
scribbled in hand-written cards with too...

It's a girl“It's a girl!”
The female form, the rounded edges
that soothe and nurture
Shaped and created by gentle hands
to fit a shoulder under a heavy arm
Beast of burden
I was formed this way and
now I am bruised and soft
from the many blows life has landed upon me
As ages pass,we continue to strive
to be...

Dear God - I'm HeartbrokenI remember when I got them
They were only five days old
Their lips were big, and their eyes were small
And their tails were Orangie/gold
I used to feed them twice a day
Once in the morning and once at night
And when it was time for them to go to bed
I would turn...

I woke up frightened, a girl lost in an abyss of terrifying dreamsI woke up frightened, a girl lost in an abyss of terrifying dreams,
Where sweat flows like a rain of stars on the sky of the endless night,
I worry, for I used to not know fear when you were by my side,
But now I feel the shadows of the world reaching silently for my soul,
I wonder...

Dear Girl I've Never MetDear girl I’ve never met,
Whether it’ll be planned or not, you’ll always be
in my thoughts.
Crazy romantic, chilled and laid-back — I hope it
will go well.
I’ll try my best to make you happy — I’ll call the
shots.
We’re gonna be singing, laughing, crying — I can
tell.
Dear girl I’ve never met,
Every time I close my eyes, I start...

Girly-GirlCrown of gold curls in rainbow wrappers.
Girly-girl, at two, favored to be beautiful.
Eyelids delight to be painted baby-girl green.
Dolly’s lascivious lashes soaked in black ink.
Innocent strawberries dot baby-blue sleeveless top.
Soon, she’ll be strapless, primping at the vanity.
For now, she holds a mirror with her eyes closed;
her reflection not quite perfected; a natural blush
of lips, cherub-cheeks...

Strawberry GirlPretty
Is a concept
You'll never
Understand
If you think
I see you
Through endeavours
Of the hand
I love
You make the effort
Appreciate
Your style
I love you
Past the surface
Just deeper
All the while
You paint
Just like a rainbow
With hues and shades
And stuff
Yet beautiful
Has found you
Already
You're enough...

the girl in the sinklast night,
i kissed the wine glass
until it cracked
from want.
i wanted red—not wine.
not again.
the walls talked in their usual static,
soft-lipped murmurs,
muffled as a hand over a mouth.
i pressed my cheek to the faucet
and heard
my mother crying
through the pipes—
or maybe it was me,
thirteen years ago,
learning how to disappear
without moving.
there’s a spoon in the bathtub.
bent.
like my will
on sundays.
