Being a poet is like being really sick. But instead of vomit, words come out. This is my word vomit.

this is the story

of the little girl

who wore her hair in blonde pigtails

with her happy green eyes

and the smile that was pure

but then she grew up

and words tooks their toll

and now

her happy green eyes

aren't so happy anymore

and her blonde hair isn't in pigtails

and that smile on her face

isn't real.
