We are Trees
We are trees, you and I
Planted,
We have grown together
Connected
One another’s life line
We have weathered
Weathered together
Steadfast
Headstrong
From Darkness to Light.
No longer am I a leaning tree
No longer am I fallen
I have risen above
Above it all
Shoved my way upwards
Forced my way onwards
My roots have intertwined
My roots, they found you.
And so…
Together,
We have experienced…
Experienced
Unbearable...
Planted,

Shoved my way upwards
Forced my way onwards

And so…

How Do I Tell You
I feel like my hands are tied...
I feel like I am running full speed,
Tied to a rope.
I pump my arms,
I raise my knees,
Control my breathing
Yet nothing.
I am standing in the same space
I feel useless.
I watch you get up
go to work
And here I stay.
I sit here.
searching, hoping, submitting
Yet Nothing.
I've applied to over 15 places
have two Degrees
yet nothing.
In the quiet.
The only sound, my keyboard
I try to keep myself busy.
Doing something ...
I feel like I am running full speed,
Tied to a rope.
I pump my arms,
I raise my knees,
Control my breathing
Yet nothing.
I am standing in the same space
I feel useless.
I watch you get up
go to work
And here I stay.
I sit here.

In My Feelings
Sweet Husband of mine
How can I tell you?
How can I say...
I feel useless here
I feel other here
I miss home
You work hard
You include me in everything
You made this home
But I can't land a job
I can't contribute
I feel lonely
1000 miles away from Cali
1000 miles away from family
1000 miles away and no job
1000 miles away and "ethnic"
I feel like I can't do anything
I can't pay for food
I can't pay for our fun
I can't drive
I feel I have no right to say ...
How can I tell you?
How can I say...
I feel useless here
I feel other here
I miss home
You work hard
You include me in everything
You made this home
But I can't land a job
I can't contribute
I feel lonely
1000 miles away from Cali
1000 miles away from family
1000 miles away and no job
1000 miles away and "ethnic"
I feel like I can't do anything
I can't pay for food
I can't pay for our fun
I can't drive
I feel I have no right to say ...

Is it Me?
We talked, really talked
In all honesty
You opened up and spilled your heart,
and i heard you
Really heard what you said
But some words,
Well they left me feeling dead.
You said,
You said things would be easier if you were
Single.
You wouldn't have to worry
Not stress, about providing.
And i know its not me that
It's not me that...
holds you back, right?
Is it me that makes you wavier?
Is it me that makes you stop?
Do i make you stumble?
Do I make you hesitate?
Is it all me? ...

Screw the Maze
Walking through a maze
A maze called life
And I keep running into dead ends..
Every turn I take,
Another wall i face.
I walk left
I walk right
I even try to start anew
Ends everywhere.
Where did I even start?
Wall after wall...
All i want is to find
My path.
My dream.
But love, those weren't dead ends
No.
Those walls were meant to reroute you.
Those walls were guides
Guides to let you find your way
The way to lead you to dream bigger
To find faith
To find those who...

From What I Gather...
I know it feels like you're in a fog
And in that fog you're walking on a beam
Walking slowly
Walking in what seems to be circles
Is there no end?
Am i even advancing, he asks
Am i even moving forward?
Why don't i feel like i'm getting anywhere?
Are there no means to my end?
Is it all for not?
I move full throttle only to be left on the wayside...
I put my all in
I give everything
But, where is my reward?
I'm left in the dark
Feeling like i didn't even start...
I am discourgaed
And in that fog you're walking on a beam
Walking slowly
Walking in what seems to be circles
Is there no end?
Am i even advancing, he asks
Am i even moving forward?
Why don't i feel like i'm getting anywhere?
Are there no means to my end?
Is it all for not?
I move full throttle only to be left on the wayside...
I put my all in
I give everything
But, where is my reward?
I'm left in the dark
Feeling like i didn't even start...

If We Were Trees
If we were trees
You would be blooming
As lively as in the spring
And I.. just entering an Autumn.
We would have met in winter
Just after weathering a storm
Each in a different state
But somehow our roots would intertwine
We would be connected
Our lives influenced
One by the other.
Over the years...
Living
Surviving
Flourishing
Over the years...
I have watched you
Grow taller
Grow stronger
Your leaves grow greener
Your trunk thicker
I have seen you.. ...

Instinct
I walked down the alley
My brother too fast
Up ahead
I walked after him
Then I felt it
An instinct burst to life
An alarm in my head
Turn around it said
Look behind you
Walk faster
Don't be scared
A man behind me
Our eyes met
I straightened up
Body alert
Ready
Forming a plan of attack
Thinking he's much bigger than I
Knowing I would fight with my all
My pace quickening
Walking through the twists and turns
Eyes desperate to see another soul
Someone ...
My brother too fast
Up ahead

"Don't go Alone"
Don't go alone"
A reminder of the stark reality
I'm 5'1
Latina
And look half my age.
Walking down the street I'm always sure to look around
Notice the cars
Notice the people
Is anyone too close?
Eyes peeled, ears attentive
Always ready
Always waiting
Always have a plan
Yell fire, it will get attention faster- or so they say
Living like this
Day by day
We are all taught precautions for- "Just in Case"
Learn to fight
Learn to get away
Learn to scream and shout
Weight lift
Wear...

Beautiful Nightmare
It feels like I'm drowning
But that i keep forgetting that i am
I feel like i opened my eyes
Looked up to the sky,
Only to realize that I'm under water
the sky looking so far away
I forget i need to breathe
I forget how to move my arms
I forget to try
It feels like I'm slowly
So slowly
sinking
So slowly
I don't even notice
I can't help but look up
and watch as the sun slowly starts to fade
Amazed by the sight
I don't fight it
Forgetting that air is escaping
my lungs
I simply let it...

I try so hard.
I try to push it down
To the ground,
Just for now.
Just until I can handle it
Just until always.
It's so hard
So hard to be away
I see you in everything
I feel you ever so close to my heart
It tears me apart
I want you here
I want you near
I want you next to me.
I want you always
I want you forever
It hurts when you're gone
It hurts mentally
It hurts physically
So I try not to think
I try not to contemplate
I try to get by...
But it is so hard.
So hard.
Everything makes me think of you...
To the ground,
Just for now.
Just until I can handle it
Just until always.
It's so hard
So hard to be away
I see you in everything
I feel you ever so close to my heart
It tears me apart
I want you here
I want you near
I want you next to me.
I want you always
I want you forever
It hurts when you're gone
It hurts mentally
It hurts physically
So I try not to think
I try not to contemplate
I try to get by...
But it is so hard.
So hard.
Everything makes me think of you...

With Loving Eyes
I looked into his eyes
His tender loving eyes,
And saw sadness..
Sorrow..
The depth..
His gentle lips spoke
they spoke of me
He said with all earnestness
That he would miss me.
With those eyes,
He told me to be strong
But that it was hard for him too.
The softness of his voice as he said
"I don't want to go"
Oh my heart.
My heart, it broke
I hugged him immediately
It was more for me than for him
His warmth embracing me
Our sorrow meshing together
Both trying to soothe one...
His tender loving eyes,
And saw sadness..
Sorrow..
The depth..
His gentle lips spoke
they spoke of me
He said with all earnestness
That he would miss me.
With those eyes,
He told me to be strong
But that it was hard for him too.
The softness of his voice as he said
"I don't want to go"
Oh my heart.
My heart, it broke
I hugged him immediately
It was more for me than for him
His warmth embracing me
Our sorrow meshing together
