Mi querida Laura

Laura always knew

She might have kept the hush, but she was no fool

My eyes lit like stars she’d say

Since I met you, Christmas came to stay

Saw how lighter I became when we met a day before

Careful Bella, love goes then comes fall

“I’m only 19” better choices await in MAY

So what if the man I love leads me stray.

Heartbreak knocked, you’d disappeared

May the ninth, grief unlocked to stir

Needless to say, Laura was right

I trade common sense for butterflies

Teenage years abid, reality set in

Old School Romance succumbed to CAPITALism

Now 20 “still room to grow”

Apprendre ser frio

It’s a shame, pero really?

A girl once bustling like bees turned so ……

Lord forgive me

In Laura’s words, “give up the ponder”

You’re cursed with so much wonder

For a world so cruel, they’ll have no space for you
