"It was never supposed to be this way," she whispered
With tears in her eyes,
Thinking the unthinkable.
He enveloped her in his love completely,
Completely callusing unrequited love's blister.

His heart grew more fond of her with each waking minute
He spent cradling her thoughts,
Thinking the unthinkable.
He was pushing his own love's limit.

"Let's break the rules."
They agreed to endure love,
Thinking the unthinkable.
His past had missed her chance, and hers missed his,
But somehow, someway,
These two, thinking the unthinkable,
Had found a new drunken love that caused speech to slur.

The ***** Up Child

Silent cries darken even the brightest places of her soul
As they broach the subject of her faults:
Irresponsible, unempowered, unworthy, insignificant.
Irresponsible in the face of problems,
Unempowered to the point of deafening silence,
Unworthy of anyone's blessings and everyone's love,
And insignificant enough not to have any worth in the world.

She was a simple, scary mistake,
One that could never be erased,
But she's here now,
And she's been here for quite some time.
Now everyone wonders:
How much longer will she last?

Love is Needed

If there is ever a time when love is needed,
Then the time will always be now,
At this very moment when the world is conceited
And no one makes good on his vow,
When all is said and done and hatred has impeded
Tradition that people say won't matter anyhow.
There will always be a time when more love is needed,
And the time will always be now.

I am Enough

I am enough,
My crooked smile and my chubby chin
I am enough,
My thunder thighs and my beautiful grin.
I am enough,
My glorious eyes and my reflection's twin.
I am enough,
Be it super thick or super thin.
I am enough,
With one love and without several men.
I am enough,
My golden, bronzed, and sun-kissed skin.
I am enough,
No matter where I'm going or where I've been.
I am enough,
Who I am is not a sin.
And I will always be enough.
