ISO- I Am Patient by Jewel Kilcher
I Am Hidden
I am hidden
but do not find me
for being hidden
doesn't show the real me
and for the sake of me
to be found
I will be your worst nightmare
I am hidden
but do not find me
for being hidden
doesn't show the real me
and for the sake of me
to be found
I will be your worst nightmare
ISO- MAN I THOUGHT YOU WAS TALKING ANOTHER LANGUAGE THAT DAY by Victor Hernandez Cruz
I FELT AS IF THE AIR AROUND ME WAS SUFFOCATING ME
BUT I'M STILL BREATHING
ALONE, QUIET AND DISTANT
IT WAS LIKE THE SILENCE COULD KILL
AND THE FEELING OF THE LIGHT WAS BURNING
MY EYES WERE STILL ADJUSTING
TO THOSE TWO LINES
MY HANDS WERE STICKY
MY EYES WERE BLURRY FROM THE ENDLESS TEARS
AND I WAS SHORT OF BREATH
I FEEL AS IF THE AIR AROUND ME WAS SUFFOCATING ME
BUT I'M STILL BREATHING
BUT I'M STILL BREATHING
ALONE, QUIET AND DISTANT
IT WAS LIKE THE SILENCE COULD KILL
AND THE FEELING OF THE LIGHT WAS BURNING
MY EYES WERE STILL ADJUSTING
TO THOSE TWO LINES
MY HANDS WERE STICKY
MY EYES WERE BLURRY FROM THE ENDLESS TEARS
AND I WAS SHORT OF BREATH
I FEEL AS IF THE AIR AROUND ME WAS SUFFOCATING ME
BUT I'M STILL BREATHING
ISO- Abuelito Who by Sandra Cisneros
Isaiah Who
Isaiah who smiles behind the grief
and fills up the room with his energy
who is warm like fresh baked cookies
who's eyes sparkle like a thousand stars
who's love is like a rose with no thorns
and who walks with toughness
who is gym weights and video games
who's rough days make him irritable
and good days make him bright
who is up on a gloomy day
who is beaters and basketball shorts
who tells me no one else in this world could love him the way i do
and reminds me everyday how much i mean to him
but why love me?

Charlize's World
charlize's lover has
coffee brown eyes
the type of eyes you
get stuck in
the story behind them
is what makes them so magnificent
the tears, pain, anger, distraught
is never shown or brought out
in those coffee brown eyes

Pinky promises
By: Charlize Metzger
Baby?
Yes?
Am I good enough for you?
Of course princess.
But, we’ve been fighting too much recently.
Yes, but this is normal
Not for us
We will be okay, nothing will make me think you aren’t good enough.
Nothing?
Nothing, I love you forever baby
I love you too
You did it, again, you lied to me.
No, I didn’t. I fucking didn’t.
Will this be all you ever do? String me along like I’m your puppy on a leash?
I don’t do that and you know it. I love you to death and I don’t lie.
Then what about the shit I found in your phone? Is that another person? Yeah I thought so.
Why the hell are you going through my phone?
I wasn’t it just popped up on your phone.
Okay well stay out next time
Sorry.
Me too, I love you
Love you.
How are you today?
Not in the best mood
Oh, I’m sorry baby.
Yeah, hopefully I’ll feel better after I see you.
That was cute.
Well I miss you
I miss you more
That’s not possible princess
Of course it is baby.
How about you come over and we’ll see?
On my way!!
What was that?
What was what?
Nevermind, I love you let’s have a good day
Okay princess, I’m ready.
You will keep me happy forever, right?
Of course baby, forever. I’m going to give you my last name one day.
When?
As soon as possible.
I hope so baby.
No need to. It will happen. I promise.
