I Can't Say What Is On My Mind

I can’t say what is on my mind,
With out my world collapsing,
You have neglected my inmost needs,
Where have you been?

I am lost in an ocean
I can’t breath,
The waves are crashing against my face,
I am tired of this current
One day the sea is calm,
The next…

I have found solace elsewhere
You are dying to know
Aren’t you?
Well you would die
I want to die
The fates have played a cruel joke on my heart.
And all because of you.

I am a writer, a poet,
I see life in an array of words
I had no words
No emotion for a long time
But life has changed
I have changed
And I can’t say how.

For a poet,
This is death.

The Roller Coaster Ride

The Roller Coaster Ride

By Nicole Serra-Gonzalez

Chucka, Chucka, Chucka,
Nerves crying out with excitement;
Slowly building,
It’s happening!
Oh yes…
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!
Someone get me off!
Ohh, Uhh…
Grab the bar tight,
Squeeze it so you won’t move.
Stop the thrusting,
Weeeeeeeee!
I think I’m gonna be sick.
That was fun, let’s do it again.

Running Through Broken Glass

Running through the glass I bang my head
It wasn’t like I didn’t see it,
I just like the pain!

I love you, I love you,’
I love you
It hurts!

I see the glass in front of me,
But I can’t stop running,
I try to wash it
Act like I’ve cleaned it so well it’s not there.

I love you, You love me?
I love you
It hurts

The glass is a barrier
Thick and strong
Can my love break it?

I love You! I love you!
Do you know
I LOVE YOU?
It really, really hurts.

I am like a bird,
Banging my whole body
On the glass.
Is it really there?

I love you, you can’t love me.
I love you
It hurts.

A barrier that can
Never be broken,
How can this be?
How will I live?

I love you, I wish I didn’t,
I love you .
It hurts.

I see you through the glass,
But I can’t touch you
You can’t touch me.
Do you see me?

I love you, I love you,
I love you
It hurts.

Break the glass
With your strong arms,
Grab me! Save me!
You can’t?

I love you, I love YOU
I love you,
It hurts me,
Does it hurt you?

For Maria, Corrie and Melissa

Raggedy Ann Land
By Nicole Serra-Gonzalez
 
They went to Raggedy Ann Land
But I didn’t go!
A place of fun and adventure.
How do you get there?
I don’t know.
They went without me,
I wanted to go,
But Sis wouldn’t tell me
And cous didn’t know.
But once they took her,
And I still didn’t go.
I wasn’t liked
By my sister,
The boss
She went to Raggedy Ann Land
She didn’t let me go.

Power

Power
By Nicole Serra-Gonzalez

Do you know what I have?
Power!
I am strong
And motivated.
I lost my power to a streak of hopelessness,
But it recently returned
I feel like a school girl
In love for the first time.
I care about me!
I actually brushed my hair
I ran
And I didn’t stop,
Three months has passed,
I still run,
Even with three kids
I am alive and getting younger everyday!
I read and write.
I make time for me.
Me!
I have power.
Get some!

A Banana

A Banana
Long, Yellow
Ripe
Mmm, it tastes so good
Stroke down the skin
Peel down the outer layer
Until a great fruit appears.
All of their shapes vary
They come little
and big.
They are delicious
and some can eat them in one bite.
Yummy!

The Fall of Woman

The Fall of Woman/ The Fall of Me
By Nicole Serra-Gonzalez

When will this desire cease?
A sinful want
In the worst way.
Where did you come from?
Awakening life within me
Like an angel from heaven
Relieving the most stressful moments.
Yet causing a burning lust
Untouchable and most desirable
Is this what God has planned for my life?
It was easy once,
But not now.
Life filled with joy and affliction…
Help and hurt
One thing can relieve this desire,
I’m sure that is what Eve said too.
