Impatience

A thousand crafted words couldn't tell you
What my eyes locked in yours could convey

A million love sick lyrics can't do the trick
When a simple smile or kiss knows what to say

The person you are searching for
Has already found you and is waiting for more

A Pimply Poem

Woke up this morning
Looked in the mirror
AHHH!

A Red Carpet Beauty Crisis

Great. Just great.
Ack!
Pizza Face.

Just let me hide under the blankets today.
Hide until the horrid acne goes away.
FOREVER.

It's not cute
I don't want it on my face, on my body, on me!
I don't feel pretty
With a ring of pimples around my face
Covering my face
An Invasion of Acne!

But I still like me
Even with an entourage of pus-filled landmines
And honestly, who could resist me?

(Hopefully no one!)

Room of Glass

Smudged windows
The prints of fingers and a nose
A girl looking through
The room of glass

Perfection mounted on the mantel
A place for every object
Order, cleanliness, and obedience in
The room of glass

Soundproof walls
Absorb the frustrated cries
Of a rebellious teen torn by
The room of glass

Hot angry tears wash
The telltale prints of defiance
The girl remains lost in
The room of glass

The doors slam with a bang
She looks around to find
The hairline crack in the walls of
The room of glass

Another slam shatters
The restless tranquility of
The room of glass
