Wars at Home
This is all just a constant battle
And I am so tired of losing
Afraid to fall too far behind
Life goes on, with or without you
It’s a show for the crowd
For which I’ve prepared nothing
And I am up next
I am not who I thought I was,
As it turns out
That’s a hard blow to absorb
Because apparently they all knew
Just never bothered to fill me in
The dramatic irony of it all
And I, here, long after the...

Crawling in Dreams
I can’t crawl deep enough under these layers
To ever hide from what’s inside of me
I can’t sleep away enough hours of the day
To forget about myself
How can it be this way
Why must you insist on haunting me
I never summoned these dreams
Yet still they arrive
Night after night
Like deliveries of wilted flowers
Arriving a day too late to enjoy
Or in my case, a lifetime
For you were always one...

senseless dissension
i am not ready for this now.
Who am I kidding
i probably never will be
I so desperately want to be
Everyone else seems to be
Always one step ahead
But everyone else is fake
everything is fake
i hate to say..
i’ve lost it a little
i’m turned around
somewhere I know all too well
yet somewhere I feel i’ve never been
someone i’ve never seen
someone who’s face I’m sick of...
30 rock - fireworks
Tracy: Doctor Spaceman, when they check my DNA, will they tell me what diseases I might get, or help me to remember my ATM pin code?
Dr. Spaceman: Absolutely. Science is whatever we want it to be. I'll let you know as soon as we have the results.
Tracy: I already know the results, the kid is not mine!
Dr. Spaceman: Boy, it's crazy to think we used to settle questions of paternity by dunking a woman in water until she admitted she made it all up. Different time, the '60s.

Window
There was a fire, once, in those eyes
Freckled with a green passion for life
Glazed with the will to learn everything there is to know
But soon the eager blue
That lined the frayed hue of gold
Crept in, bled those eyes damp and dry
Those eyes became bitter, and ceased to live
The craving was gone
And the thirst lingered on
The gaze that once encompassed some enchanted dance
Was suffocated by...

this is really awesome. wonderfully written, great talent! as a birth mom myself, it’s pretty great to see that an adoptee is so in-tune with her birth mom’s thoughts and feelings and (it appears to me) she is very supportive and grateful for the heartbreaking decision that was made for her.

The Myth of the Right to Life
Clearly, life manifests, at the earliest, when an egg and a sperm unite at the moment of fertilization. Life is not a potential - it is a process triggered by an event. An unfertilized egg is neither a process nor an event. It does not even possess the potential to become alive unless and until it…

promises, promises
As the sun tucks us gently in to bed
And turns the sky a magnificent watercolor of orange and blue
He takes our promises, to keep until morning
So we won’t lose them in our sleep
Tonight I promised these things to you:
“I’ll love you until the day after eternity
you will forever have the comfort
of new memories, and fond recollections
I’ll stare into your eyes till mine grow weak with age
I’ll...

mi alma
te quiero
i want lay with you
and stare at you
all day long
and just smile at you
and be me
and let you be you
in every way that you want to be
te quiero
i want to take pictures of you
and hang them on the wall
in no particular order
just to tell our story
of love
of that moment
we were happy
if just for a click of a shutter
but it’s so much more
te quiero
i say it to you
because you...

at a loss
I take too many pictures.
I have too.
Pictures are all I have.
I look at them too often
But too often still isn’t enough
I hold you when I can
Even when my arms are screaming
For me to let go
I can’t, not even then
And it’s still not long enough
I kiss your face a million times
And it’s a million too few
Because memories
Will soon be all I have
And I dread the night turning
Back to reality
I stare...
