Jowelle Mizero: Poems

Bird

Jowelle Mizero Apr 2017

Bird

But I was a bird,
and you should have known
I’d fly away.

I was not made to be caged,
but you can watch me fly.

Confidence Song

Jowelle Mizero Jul 2017

You can’t
break me.
You didn’t
make me.

Human

Jowelle Mizero Feb 2017

Human

As you inhale,
I exhale.
We are human,
together in this
breath of life,
moving in this
perfect rhythm.

Lion

Jowelle Mizero Apr 2017

Lion

A lion roars.

I hear it within me,
a steady reverberation
animating my soul.

I am power.

Why wait
for love
when I

love?

Moments

Jowelle Mizero Mar 2017

Moments

Today is yesterday's tomorrow.

Our moments are collecting,
building a past.

Each second writes the
story we'll read
when tomorrow becomes today.

OLD SUN

Jowelle Mizero Feb 2017

OLD SUN

An old sun rises
over a new day,
holding past’s lesson and
illuminating present’s path.
Up high watching the world’s orbit,
the birth of love, the blast of hate.
All the while in silence,
shining as the seasons change.

Pieces

Jowelle Mizero Feb 2017

Pieces

I fell hard
and my bones shattered like glass.

As I watched my pieces scatter,
I realized that my mistake was
trusting you.

I didn't fall.
You dropped me.
