I love writing poems.
I really, truly, honestly,
do.
But, Mrs. Henry,
I can't rhyme.
I was born without
that special part
of me.
I can write.
And you know I can.
I just can't
do it
for
you.
Mariah Feb 2013
On days like today, I wonder.
and when I wonder, I question.
and when I question, I get scared.
because me questioning,
is me killing the little butterfly
i drew on my wrist.

They say
Where your mind goes
when it wonders
is where
your heart
truly lies.

My mind
wonders to
music,
Europe,
and you.

You treat me like I'm your best friend, and you love hanging out with me.

You look at me like I'm the most beautiful girl in the world.

We talk like we've known one another our entire lives.

We argue like we've been married for 57 years.

And we're still single.

Why?

me.
Sometimes I like to watch movies.
Or make a huge sundae and just
eat all of it.
Or sometimes I just stay in bed
all
day
long.

Just sometimes,
I like to be me.
