I was thinking… and am arrogant enough to believe that others want to read all about it. I'm a Brooklyn girl from a big loving and dysfunctional family. 600 miles away, making a home with the love of my life. These are my thoughts, my stories, my art. Enjoy!!!

Song of sorrow

Seeking a miserable defection
Like a stubborn boy you can't stop kissing
Close enough to a lack of perfection
Thinking you have all but something missing

Like a savage stronghold on the real life
A desperate attempt at trying to flee
Gone through this hatred and through this strife
Is this a real person or is this me?

Like breaking dawn on this reality
Like a psychotic glitch of tragedy
So close to death and abnormality
It's like there is no kind of strategy

Like a running train that never slows down
For far too long I've worn such a sad frown
