Love Poem: I Am the Sun

I Am the Sun

Sand, dust, and dirt


I was a soldier girl




I picked up my M4 and the magazine


My lipstick and my glass of wine


You wrote me 5 times to my million and nine




The sweat came down like a waterfall


Cascading on my back and my broken heart


 Your empty words left bullet holes

beautifully laid out like works of art



Your long blonde hair and beautiful stare…


Gave me nightmares…Gave me nightmares



Study your books and solve their mistakes


The equation of love is something given, not something to take



Climb your mountain 


Sprint your twenty-six point, two one


Maybe one day you will realize 


The brightest star to earth, is the sun
