LA MIGRA

Even as a little girl,
I knew things were different
My mom and dad didn't know english.
Hell, I didn't learn till i was in the 4th grade
The discrimationn was know, were weren't your average
our skin is too light, but our accent is so strong
I know where I come from,
and I know where i stand
I may have been born in the states,
but my heart is from a different land
cruzaron la frontera
to give us a better life
with nothing on their backs
but a child and a hope of life
There was nothing for them to give us
they barely had enough
the food on the table was shared between the twelve of us
Waking up and hoping
that this won't be the day
knowing that your risking
risking your life away
"LA MIGRA, LA MIGRA"
Hoping those words won't be spoken
wanting to go home
and see your family grow
is something we all want to know
your kids won't understand
until one day a white man comes up to you and says
"HEY YOU MEXICAN GET OFF MY LAND"
Reality strikes, and familiarity hits
those words are so common
They never miss
They shoot at you like bullets,
Building holes with every hit
Your family is hated
by men and woman who say we created a problem that already exists
Minimum wage
thirteen hour shifts
no option of welfare or insurance
because that social security number doesn't exist
Those bills keep on piling
and the hours keep on dying

everyone knows, 

mexicans never quit

working is what we came to do,

to give a life they never knew

see, my parents didn’t make it past junior high

working since they were young

sewing up blankets, fixing the farm

working their asses off, 

to keep their family up and alive

showing work ethic and happiness

no matter what is in sight

chose to leave everything behind

for the family they want to see grow

with a better life in mind

putting two kids through college, 

and one on the way,

they managed to stay strong

and show the white man they’re here to stay.

Time

Time of desperation

Soul on the run

Family all around

Nowhere to hide

Creaks and corners

Covered with memories

Some you want to forget

Others want to write down

Life is short

We hold on to the rope

Longer the time

The thinner the cord

Breathe while you can

Accept what must

Cry when its right

Yell when it hurts

Neglect the bad

Fix the change

Work on yourself 

Forget the pain

Room

Who knew a room could become so sacred 

Just looking at the floor made me feel emotionally naked 

At 8 in the morning I got that call

"Hey your sister died go tell your ma"

Just the night before as I lay on the ground

My mind half asleep

Her voice creeped down 

I don't wanna go please let me stay

But gods decision let us know he chose the other way

Childhood room filled with her memories, her bed beside mine

Always together they be

Torn down by the agony 

Mom couldn't stand it 

Made me take it down, she chose not to have it

I had no say 

Her thoughts her writing 

18 years crammed into a shoe box

The notes that'd said "I love you little seester okay?

2 years gone by

I still remember your casket 

Family on each side 

Dropping the flowers as we cried

Mom has her days 

Dad tries to hide it

Oscar shyes away

Ale never knows what to say

I wish I would of known 

That night would be our last 

But now I sit here reminiscing our past

Sitting in your room

Looking at your hat 

When no words would come out

I feel your ghost pass

Flip the switch see your shimmering lights

So bright and special they'd light up the night

You left those there

To remind us all

Of the soul you have

And the love you saw 

When things would go wrong 

And I didn't know where to turn 

I'd run down those stairs 

Looking for you

I'm emotionally broken

Can't you see it's you I yearn?

A room so empty 

Filled with her memories

When I found no comfort 

I'd go down and see

You left what you had

Left it all for me

Because even though you didn't know

You knew it was what I'd need 

Keeper

Soooo much has changed in these past months.
I started senior year of high school!
Its been kinda rough since I missed the first two weeks of school since I was in mexico.
But I wouldn't go back and change a thing.
I won Homecoming queen! just like jay did. I guess it just comes along through the generations.
Well, theres also this boy.
Im not gonna say his name. or anything.
im just gonna say what I feel.
Hes sweet, charming, handsome, respectful, grateful, funny, awkward, and last but not least, hes become a bit of my happiness.
I know weird to say since I have only liked him for about a month, but weve been talking since the summer and everything.
He was so cute and just would always text me, and me being me, wouldn't text back. Which is real bad of me, I know.
But what makes this better, is that it was so unexpected. it just happened.
No were not dating or anything.
But I have feelings for him.
Hes someone I wouldn't like to lose.
He opened up to me, in such ways I really couldn't imagine anyone doing that to.
No one opens up, to things in such a way, to someone they wouldn't trust.
Right?
When he opened up, it made me feel a bit closer to him.
Like I felt like I knew him a bit better.
I understood him.
We just happened to have gone on two dates this past weekend.
We killed two birds with one stone.
I didn't want a relationship my senior year, but after meeting with him, and talking with him, and just being around him, I sure wouldn't mind.
All this is coming from a girl who has never had true feelings for a guy.
Well at least never like this.
I get butterflies when I see him, I really want him to hold my hand, and I just get all giddy around him.
Uhhh that has to mean something right?
I told him that I surround myself with the people and things that make me happy, and he happened to be one of them.
I don't know how or why it came out, but it did. and im so happy it did.
He told me I made him happier, and he felt lighter since hes been around me.
K doesn't your heart just melt when you read that? because mine did while I wrote it.
Oh, he was also my homecoming date. And let me say. He looked good, and he was such a gentleman the whole night. yep.
The slow dances. Oh don't even. So cute.
Well.. I don't know if you can tell. But this one is a keeper.

gleam

Your smile continues to gleam.
The biggest and brightest ive ever seen.
You left this earth far to soon.
But for some reason every one knew.
You had yo go you needed the peace. Youd always question how great it would be to live in a world much different than the one that we see.
Your as calm as the deep gentle sea.
Its our turn now to see we need to let you be.
God chose your path
He determined your fate
Even though your gone.
You never left my side.
Youre living deep, deep down inside.
My heart aches for something is missing. Your life was set for something so great.
Youre watching over us.
So proud we should make you, we must.
You are guiding us through life. Oh my what a sight.
I'd like to share this with you.
Everything i see, you see as though you knew.
This isnt goodbye.
We will cry, dont be mad its part of life.
Your an angel now.
I hope that you see,
All the great things youve brought outta me.
You must now rest in peace.
Your memory will continue to gleam.
See you in heaven.
See you in peace.

Miss you.

Latina americana

Latina Americana, thats what they say.

Never seen as one of those teenagers out there doing the same.

I’ve been labeled, i've been judged.

To the people around the world, i'm just one of their little rugs.

They step on my dreams, they tell me i can't, not aware of everything i am capable at hand.

My parents came here to help us survive, why can they see what helps us strive?

You wont make it, you're not good enough, They test me, they push me.

But they don't see, everything i am setting out to be.

They don't see all this hunger i carry , Its the hunger to make me better than what they believe.

I wont be put down just for their sake, i've been through situations they wouldn't be able to take.

At the age of 16 i had to mature, seeing as though i lost something so pure.

My sister died in an accident so cruel, no one wants to believe it, even to this day.

My family spread apart, i was alone, I haven't felt complete since the day i was left here to mourn.

Suddenly those words became true.

The little rug feeling was coming out, out shining everything ive ever thought about.
I wont, i cant, everything was there.

Beginning to pull me, beginning to tear me.

Never in my dreams had i imagined my life to be this way.

What can you do when this is the price we all have to pay.

The pain you feel has you weak, all you can do is fall down on your knees.

You can say a word or two hoping some day it will come true.

At the age of 16 i've been labeled ive been judged, i've lost and ive loved.

You learn to grow, you learn to live, most importantly you grow patient with it.

I’ve grown angry, i've grown tired, i'm the same as before, but one thing's for sure, i'm more ambitious than ever before.

I will get to where i need to, not just for me, but for those few people who actually believed in my dreams.

I’m a minority, living between a majority, growing with them, never becoming like them.

My heritage taught me to push through the hate, show them whos wrong and i'm apart of something great.

We Will all rise, to be who we are, for we are driven by something so powerful, by far.
