Madre Mia

My mother has been a single parent since my father passed away in 1998. I don't know how she did it, but I'm here, we're here. Ode to her.

Madre mia
me dicen que me miro como ella
pero no tengo esos ojos castanos que lloran quando los mios lloran
le he llamado muchos nombres pero la unica que suma y que es irrevocable es mama, mother, mami
la que me dio la vida, y que me da de comer:
me encanta la jamaica (de la buena) que ella prepara
y no me olvido
no podemos escojer nuestra mama pero si podemos escojer como tratarla
Apprecio y amo a mi Lulu o Michelle. Si soy su guardaespalda. :P

My Mother

They tell me I look like her

but I don't have those hazel eyes that cry when mine cry

I have called her many names but the only name that sums up and that is irrevocable is mama, mother,mami

the one that gave me life, the one that feeds me:

I love the jamaica (the good kind) that she prepares

and I don't forget

we can't choose our mother but we can choose how to treat her

I appreciate and love my Lulu or Michelle. Yes I am her bodyguard. :P

The above I began writing last year for Mother's Day but never finished nor published. I have not shared this with my mom, but will.  Sorry for any misspellings or grammar; I tried. :)

¿Por que? Pourquoi? WHY?!

Unsaid words
I'm waiting to hear
Spill
because maybe you can stop the tears
I've said my lines
now it's your part
take 2
CUT, it's a wrap.
Mis palabras ya son de mas.

silent MIStreatment

Surrounded by piercing silence
one must ponder when one does not want to speak to another
to what extremes do they wish to exceed
one's respect? pride?
they become the one thing they said they weren't: rude which makes me brood
in what kind of mood? one of distaste
volatile silence
I must say
one can play
two can too
utterly in dismay
a big boo boo
my pen stops
but the silence remains.
who won?
not me
I hope you're happy.
Because I'm not.
Who would be?
I wish I didn't care
but I did, do.

"FAT" GIRL SPEAKING on body image and her health

It saddens me to hear/see that people treat "skinny" people bad. They talk if you're fat and they talk if you're skinny! WTF! Worry about your own body. I do not know why people feel the need to tell me , yes me that I'm bigger than my twin sister. You don't think I know that? I have a mirror, I live with her, I see her. That's one of the cons of being a twin they have to compare. I hate hearing it, do they really need to go there. I feel that they feel they can jab at me with that one. It's usually women telling me, pourquoi?!

 In all honesty, I think I look GOOD; yeah I'm working on losing some lbs, to be the healthy me that I once was. It's a new year and I want to be more fit and eat healthy. Plus I'm not on any meds so I'm really happy about that because they were really strong and I would need to see a cardiologist soon if I continued to take them. 

Just be nice to everyone! God made us all different.

Yo you in my BUBBLE!

-"Hey you're in my bubble!"  

"I don't see your bubble"

-"Well yeah because you popped it! (my bubble)"

Literally needed to push a guy away because he was too close for my liking. 2x! Mon dieu!  Can't a girl just smile and laugh at/with a guy? Can't we just be friends?
