The lover girl in me

By

 She is tired of being tired

She wants to give up on love

She questions everything yet 

The lover girl in me is stuck 

to being hopeless romantic. 


She craves for intimacy but 

Somehow she has lost interest in 

Knowing and meeting new people 

The lover girl in me is afraid 

That the story is going to repeat itself. 


She is stuck between wanting to love 

and feel loved again 

And not wanting to lose herself over 

a man again 

The lover girl in me in confused. 


She no longer knows how to put the game on 

She'll be head over heels and still act uninterested

She believes that love comes with pain 

Which feels like standing in the rain 

The lover girl in me can't take it no more. 


The lover girl in me wants more 

Wants to date to marry 

Want it to be forever or may be

Her first murder case 

The lover girl in me confirms that causing other people pain should be illegal. 


With all that she feels, 

The lover girl in me still believes in finding a miracle 

A lover guy who can love her for who she is 

Gets her, understand her silence, and 

Appreciate her craziness. 


The lover girl in me wants love and to love again.

If I don't make it, Call my sister

By
 If  I don't make it home,  Or from my dance class,  Or from my early morning jogs,  Or to work someday, Wait for me a little longer,  I might be sitting by the road,  Admiring cars or just overthinking,  I might be still in my bed,  Debating if that day is worth the corporate stress,  I might be deciding if I got to keep going or just give up,  If I don't make it,  Before you call anyone, talk to God, Ask for my last blessings and a restful death.  When you get my house, grab my journal on the bedsitter  Write down that date and say that I didn't make it.  Search for all my journals and burn them, Because the dreaming and planning will be over. Don't call my guy best friend, because honestly that's heartbreak to never recover from. Don't call my mom directly,  Because it will be sorrows to loose her youngest child,  No matter how much I can age,  I am still my mom's youngest child, her little love...

People like us

  This story was inspired by my dearest friend Alizee.  She is a girl of morals and I love that she is full of life regardless of the hell she has been through. Being a bitch and a lover, a sinner and a saint, and most of all, she lived to live not to survive.   Seeing the way she lived I questioned my existence and wondered if she lived like that because her name meant trade wind and she only acted like wind. She was always convinced that she was not like others, not in an extraordinary manner but in a way, she was a person to fight and work twice as hard compared to other people. She believed everything has to be earned, even love. “ People like us”, She said  People like us are never allowed to be wrong and to be anything less than perfect. We are raised that way,  Even as a child, she was not allowed to ask silly questions if it was not for excellent answers or experiences. Growing up, she never saw her mother happy. She believed that at some point, m...

Another Valentine's Day

 And it is another Valentine's day,  Where we are just grateful to be in good health,  And no prospects for intimate relationships.  Alone at night cuddling pillows or at the clubs getting tipsy And yet, we have a phone full of names and numbers,  A gallery full of memories of people we no longer talk to  But forever in love with them.  Where most people have touched our bodies and faces,  But never met our souls and hearts,  And we drew distance to keep it classy,  Since showing emotion reflects weakness.  Another Valentine's day,  Where we are thinking about our next big projects,  Instead of  planning gifts to give to people we care for, Where some of us will only call family to check on how they  are doing and simply wish them  a nice day.  Where we really don't mind an invitation to dinner,  Or alone night in for a deep sleep after a long week, Where we are just on a normal Friday, Thankful th...
