Somehow, I knew that he would never hold me,
so,
I let you instead.
I do not want you heart,
and your shoulders have a jagged edge.
But I am tired,
and somewhere on your chest,
I know there is a soft place where I can rest.
Hold me
hold me dear,
draw me close,
because he was never there,
and maybe if you rock me to sleep,
I will awake,
refreshed and repaired.
Hold me,
hold me dear,
but not because you love me only,
hold me
hold me dear,
just because we are both lonely.

Being a woman,
means a hormone gushing roller coaster ride,
of irrational emotions,
which you struggle to hide,
to suppress,
to pretend all is under control,
while internally the crazy is taking its toll,
until the moment you explode,
(approximately 5 minutes),
to your 15 closest friends,
about the latest minor catastrophe,
or celebratory
story.
Gentlemen,
it’s not my fault,
I blame estrogen.

My computer being slow,
makes me want to throw,
it
and everything around me,
against the wall,
when I am hungry.
The dish left in the sink,
growing mold,
starting to stink,
can push me to the brink,
when I am hungry.
My friend is 20 minutes late,
and testing his fate,
all my adoration,
turns to hate,
when I am hungry.
Like a monster in a rage,
beware if I am not caged,
keep walking,
do not engage,
when I am hungry.
Got home,
ordered pizza over the phone,
and returned to equilibrium.
Nom nom nom.
I should never diet.

Double negatives,
make a positive,
when they cross paths,
or when parallel,
they make a sum,
equal signs,
resting on top one another.

Confidence devoid of arrogance,
initiative and perseverance,
conscious and observant,
responsible and conversant,
curious mind,
measured with time,
respectful and self-sufficient,
optimistic and proficient,
passionate and empathetic,
creative and poetic.
