Literature Text
My mother did not hold me much as a baby, and rarely hugged me as a young child. In fact, my mother had always been odd about touching even for something as simple as kissing my forehead. For many that may suggest neglect, but my mother did it for my own good. She did everything she could for my own good.
My mother can no longer hold me, or kiss my forehead. Two years back she passed from a curable disease, all because I took away her chance of survival.

Sleep
some people lament
when it comes to that moment of the day
or night
when we fall to dreams
and sleep.
"such loss of time" they say,
"i could be doing things" they cry.
but i think that dreams are an adventure too.
i can be a king in my dream,
or a queen
- a drag queen -
as bold as anything!
or a drag racer.
i can even be a bunny or a cloud or a chef.
most importantly though,
i find,
i get to not be me.

Sleepy Thoughts
Sleepy thoughts drift through my brain
He said, she said, I love u
The brain process slowly shuts down
My eylids flutter and struggle to stay open
And yet, still more thoughts come.
School, work, life, when does it end?
When I try to sleep my brain thinks.
It's like a caged butterfly, scared to stop, scared to sleep.
Yet there are more things to think about than you can in a day!
Sure, I think about family, and the occasional I miss of a past relative.
But do we ever really stop thinking?
Sure, we fall into a dream state where we conjure up a realm to run from our problems.
Inside we are continually trying to break out of a realit

Sleeping in my Bed
This is my Home But Someone's Been Sleeping in my Bed
Don't look at me like you don't know;
The fire in your eyes was never mine.
If I could dust your softly pale skin,
I would find prints that do not belong.
Why do you hide behind your makeup and yoga mats
When I can see straight through you
To the long nights, coffee talks,
And the lies that envelop us.
Talk to me, baby, tell me what's wrong.
What did I do to push you away?
Did I work too late, talk to much,
Or was it a simple case of burned lunch?
Are those nights just a memory,
Brushing my hands through your hair?
Did my love mean anything to

A butterflies wings are so frail yet the butterfly still flies. Do not confuse fragility with weakness.
