POEM| I Want To Be Here
I’m here
but I’m not really here
my body is here

and doing the things I believe I should do
POEM| My Lover Says…

POEM| No One Tells You

and it has no regard for your feelings
it doesn’t answer your cries
nor does it wait for your opinion

see me become the woman
you taught me to be
Be True To You

POEM| Anxiety
It’s happening again
squirming all over me
I start with shaking my legs
pacing up and down
then I begin to pick dirt
from my nails with my thumbnail
