The girls I knew had sad and sullen gray faces

I woke up feeling really crappy today so work was a struggle to get through. Plus my allergies were actin’ the fool, so I couldn’t get through the day without Advil. I took a nap when I got home, but it wasn’t a v. good one. I felt like I was still awake. :/ I’ve got a load of sugar in my freezer in the form of Breyer’s Oreo ice cream so I’m gonna snack on that in a bit.

Poetry tiems!

The Lord never did anything to me
It was all my own stupidity
Oh, planet green, you’ve imprisoned me
Cold and lonely, broken and tired
I see you and your weapons wired

***

Lost in thought
Such unfamiliar territory
Brown in the face
But only in the mirror
Confused by my ability
Unable to enable
Powered by eccentricity

***

Young lady in a pink dress
Freed from any old lady stress
Wonder if I could do
Everything I plan to do
Before God makes me blue in the face

***

Revealing my weakness
A chink in my armor
Like the eyes of my mother
Makes me wonder
Never want to be like her
Lush life impossible
With the burden of the mothers before me
Around me
Like a blanket
With holes in it
