Katherine Egan Poems

Today,
People care about outer appearance.
Weight.
Color of our skin.
...

The ocean.
Wild and untamed beauty.
Sometimes calm and clear,
With shimmering, soft waves that roll up against the sand.
...

Yellow.
Everything was
Yellow.
The trees, the houses,
...

I know.
I know that you are hurting.
I know you feel alone.
I know you feel hated.
...

I have a shoulder.
Two actually.
So, if one gets too wet from your tears,
I have another,
...

I know how you feel.
I have been in your place.
Bullied.
Teased.
...
