(2014)
My sister’s cookies Chocolate chip Got my nephew to Say her name For the first time
Steamroller Of life Passed by Feeling down Squished
Hillary’s beautiful Rose Bumpy’s favorite princess My mini-me, my little lion Cute button nose Framed by red hair
La presión atrapada Busca por donde salir Tapo mi boca Se me sale por los ojos Tapo mis ojos
I am stronger Than you think I am I am weaker Than I look
The whole world Aches and groans Do you feel her pain? The human in me Wants to heal mankind
Why can’t I choose to be somewhere in the middle? Surrounded by extremes Measure everything With a grain of salt
No pido disculpas Por escribir Lo que siento Lo que llevo adentro Lo que vivo
He says I could never Get away with murder For I leave Pieces of me everywhere
It’s not that I’m sad Though I am It’s not that I’m discouraged Though I am It soaks deeper
Some I like to share Fresh out of the oven Don’t let it get cold That’s why I wrote it Emotions in that moment
Que te cuentan un chiste Las palabras se traducen Pero el humor no se puede Por si no lo entiendes Ríete
The pressure inside Is building It comes out through my eyes I stop up the tears It comes out through my nose
You might know her As blonde eyes Or as the sister who bakes cookies But you see I don’t write this
Most women are cooks But a man who cooks Is a chef She cooks over and over To feed the masses
