B.B. & Billie: A Beautiful Thing
I was listening to, or rather my dad was playing "The Thrill is Gone" by B.B. King. Normally, I would’ve complained but today B.B’s music moved me. He sings about losing the thrill of something you once loved. -
Mommy
Mommy
Where did you go?
Come back to me.
My little mouth can’t feed itself.
Mommy
I miss you
I need you here with me.
My little tears won’t dry themselves. -
The Man on the Moon is Melting
The Man on the Moon is melting
His figure distorted
Like candle wax dripping down into the inky sky
His essence forms the stars

Let us open our pale eyes to the sun
The whole world readies itself in anticipation of beautiful things.
The sky sends down its sunny beams of joy
Revealing to us a green oasis
Finally released from winter's icy grasp. -

Memories Marked In Snow
This piece was published in my school newspaper!!! Hope you enjoy :)
My bright red converse in the snow
crunching step by soggy step
Your blue sneakers
racing to meet mine

If to be a sonnet is to be vain, then to be a sonnet is to be a friend.
If to be a limerick is to be laughed at, then to be a limerick is to be a child.

Like stress
Tiredness consumes me
It chokes me in not a painful way
but a worn way
Like a vest
so close
to falling apart
but still has to survive
the following day
Like a foot

Girlhood (In honor of International Women's Day)
I love being a girl
but I hate what it took
for me to be able to go to school
for me to know I will be able to vote
for me to know that I will be allowed to get a job when I grow older
