Bang, bash, boom
Sshssh, whistle, splat
Slammed doors
Windows crashed
Buildings collapsed
Friends missing
Hurt or
Worst of all
Dead
Sleepless nights
Sporadic meals
Clothes nasty
Body smelling skanky
From days of
Lots of running
And more walking
Corners suspicious
Bombardments needed
When does it end
When can I go home
Some stuff you just
Don’t want to remember
In the hell of war
-Jennie Nawrocki
I can’t see
Someone is blocking
Goodness sakes
What happened
I want to know
Won’t somebody
Tell me
Someone should know
There were so many people
And somehow
She still doesn’t know.
-Jennie Nawrocki
Are happy they made it through childbirth.
-Jennie Nawrocki
Could it be
What about
Have you thought of
They are going to say
They probably think
Goodness gracious not
I should cover my basis
I can’t say this
Won’t do that
But what if
I must
Ugh what now
I didn’t think of
-Jennie Nawrocki
When you trust
You believe
What is done
Is
What is said
You believe
You know
Their intentions
You believe
You understand
Your relationship
Inter dynamics
You believe
Trust is honesty
Which is not a lie
Because your beliefs
Are trustworthy
-Jennie Nawrocki
Happy Easter.
-Jennie Nawrocki
A heart
Was meant
For steady beats
Without fibrillation
Without skips
Without freezing
Gentle must be
The ba boomps
Or quick
In athleticism
But steady
All the same
Just as your
Love must be
Steady like
A heart beat
-Jennie Nawrocki
