Janine Alyssa Navarro Poems

cracked walls
stained footsteps
sing louder your cries
twisting in agony
...

I love being broken;
Makes me
Create painful stories
Tell wonderful hurting tales
...

To come up with rhymes
requires the necessity
of breaking a heart.
...

practice makes perfect
car crash perfected
no need for reverse
bring out the worst
...

Fake plastic grass
Paper Trees
Straw park benches
Puppeted kites
...

The Universe
Has woken me
From a deep sleep
Of ignorance
...

Days shifted
The world
Came into focus
And just like that
...

He brought out the best in me
When I thought I was just less
He gave me purpose, meaning
I finally felt real and solid
...

This pillow is flattened and cold
Please Sleep, I can manage
The shadows around
Won’t lay a scratch on me
...

I am far from the ocean
but knowing it keeps me away,
drowns my very dreams.
...
