with
back pains
colourful
enough
to fill
a widow's
apartment,

and
black soot
smelly
enough
to stink
away
the ugly
friends
your daughter
made,

the
salty *****
is spicy
enough
to swivel around
in an office
chair
(where you
decided
my child-
hood
was to
be
over)
.

I can't imagine all the
pain you must've felt
as they beat you with the whip.

I can't imagine all the
torture you went through
as they nailed your hands and feet.

I can't imagine what an
eternity spent with you in
Heaven is like but I know
that because of the pain and torture
you willingly endured
I get to spend forever with you.
I was raised Catholic
But Easter
Belongs to
Mother Nature
It is a holiday
Hijacked by men
Who refused to accept
A female worthy of
Worship
And holiday
I don't have any more room in my heart
Mine is already full
But if you agree to cover your eyes
I will provide the wool.

people only realise
how much you're worth
once they've seen the door
SLAM        SLAM       SLAM
and you've turned your back
to prove a point, i'd say.

don't bathe me in liquid gold;
i don't want diamonds, i don't want coal.
my heart's desire is someone to hold
at night when i'm at my most
                                 vulnerable
and when i dream of getting old,
surrounded by nothing but lonely nights,
i just want someone to hold.
