I think about...I think about...
I think about whatever triggers me. My footprints in the snow trigger a thought of the future So blurry and not defined by any promise of a job Or love, or financial security. My puppy triggers a thought of death in my mind Of my two past pups, and if he will love me as Much and as bravely as they did. Putting jeans on triggers the numbers on the scale And how I have yet to decrease it, I have yet to Lose those bundles that stare at me in the mirror With shame. My mother triggers the thought of love within me. And how no matter how much I try to write it out, Or hug and kiss her, tell her, I couldn't define How much that woman means to me and how much I will hate it when she is one day gone. My father triggers the thought of childhood within me And how much I wish I could be his little girl again, but Not just for my sake, but for his as well because he didn't Worry about me worrying and somehow we grow up and We all just worry. My sister triggers the need for family abroad, because we Speak in traveling terms. Not just by plane, but by future Means, and I know she will go places and I see her in the Brightest light with raindrops falling only when they hold Successes, because she is so destined to make it, and That therefore triggers a thought within me to think about... My life... And where it is going. And if I have the creativity and the originality, and uniqueness, humility, Talent, and intelligence to make it. You know, to make something out of this 21st century mess I have seemed to drown in for 20 years.

AuthorI like to write; point blank. This is a little piece of me that I get to share with the rest of the world, and hey, you know, maybe you'll appreciate it, maybe it'll do nothing for you. But my writing exists, and that's enough for me. © 2019 Silvia Iorio. All rights reserved.
