To St Petersburg

I apologize for my falling in love with another. Atlanta has accepted me with arms open and gave me what I have been looking for this past year. Please forgive my indiscretions with an open hearted man.

St Pete boys took me and tore my heart apart with empty promises. Atlanta has given me new hope for possible love and a new start. Please do not take this personally. It is me, not you, my dearest, St Petersburg.

Your True Patron,

Gregarious Muse

Happy Birthday to Me

Today my mom called and yelled at me.
Some days I really wish I could disappear.
Possibly melt into my bed.
A time out.
There is a transition from childhood.
To the adult.
I used to wish things would move faster.
Now I am crying for them to stop.

Tomorrow is my 24th birthday.
Let us hope this year comes with brakes intact.
