Sweet Dreams, by Dalizah Saldana

Every night.
I go to sleep.
All the time
The same dream
Comes up.
Always about you.
Why you
Have to be in my mind
All the time?
Why I have to dream about you?
Maybe it means
I am in love with you,
But then why don’t you
Cross worlds with me?
Why don’t I tell you
What I feel for you?
Why am I so scared?
Nothing is going to happen
Because
I’m expressing myself
To you
How I feel but
This is just
A sweet dream
Which I never want
To wake up from.

  • I Write

    by Wanda Cappas

    I write about my daughter
    how she puts a smile on
    my face each morning.
    I write about anger.
    I write about how hard it
    is to be a young mother
    and how people criticize me.
    I write about my sister
    how I missed her when
    she was away.
    I write about anything
    that crosses my mind.
    I write about my
    name, Muñeca, crazy,
    untouchable, trouble,
    Wanda.
    I write about
    me.
