Madrastra
She’s heavy
Like an elephant on your chest
She belittles you even at your best
She’s the author of anxiety
& the mother of your depression
Regret, regression, repression
She kills your vision
& sets sail her mission
She promises safety in knowledge
Yet does only damage
She bathes you in sorrow
And gives life that is only borrowed
She seeks you until she can finally behest
Your violent a...

Take The Risk!!
It’s a Sunday afternoon, I’m sitting in my car peacefully staring at the beautiful trees, the bright blue sky with minimal clouds, and kids playing on my neighborhood street. A minute later a rush of guilt and despair take over my calm state of being. I feel pathetic. All week I have been waiting for the weekend, daydreaming about what I was going to do.

Grandpa
regrets linger
I knew he was fading,
His light slowly dimming.
Yet my life kept me tethered,
My visits started skimming.
I long to see his smile again,

Have one more conversation.
If only I had gone sooner,
Seen his face one last time.
Maybe even held his wrinkly hands.
Heard his voice, still sublime.
The regret weighs heavily,
It’s overwhelming
A burden i will always b...
Opportunity
It sparked so bright
A wildfire in the night
And I could see the future
In the palm of my hand
A beautiful distant land
All for me
An opportunity
But it withered in my eyes
In the glare of my sights
And it disappeared
I cannot find it anywhere
And now I’ve lost myself in time
To the moment where I was denied
My greatest wish, my greatest dream
A wonderful eternity
And now I’m left with nothing

What To Do
What to do when
The choices are endless
The possibilities even more so
It can be paralyzing if you let it
But I don’t
Let it I mean
My choices are often quick
My gut being the north star
But sometimes my gut is wrong
And I take back my choices
One thing that’s beautiful
Is you can always choose to choose again
Sometimes though
I ponder
And ponder
And ponder
When my gut can’t choose for me
When...
