i am proud
that i am capable of having sex like a man
but am afraid
that i might be made of stone
and unable to love
like a woman.
seriously, this is how my social life goes: doing next to nothing except bubble baths during four consecutive weeks, then making up for all of it in one night. which was last night, which included a party till 2am, lots of driving, a stop at a gas station for something other than gas, pain and desexcitacion on my part, as always, and about ten minutes of sleep.
i cried my first tears though in about three months over the doubts i have of ever being able to be in love.
at least being a teacher keeps me from turning into stone. otherwise i'd be a statue in my mother's garden. i wonder wether i would have wings???

That is such a good little poem.
Very sad though, yet so rich, profound and intense.
darlin' you'd have a condescending smirk on your face and a hookah in hand.
