Barceloneta Beach Spain
My photography @sherrylephotography 5/23
White caps rolling ashore as waves break on the sandy shore
Watching florescent green sails sail smoothly on the blue horizon
Building a sand castle, riding the waves, eating turron ice cream all on this special day in May

sigh of a dyke
356 queer people*
320 beautiful trans people**
365 days***
*who suffered a hate crime in 2023.
**murdered in 2023.
***in 2023.
1 queer child*
468 bills**
52 days***
*murdered in 2024.
**that killed them, just from 2024.
***in 2024, only.
sigh. it's heavy. but what can I do?*
*cry, pray, search, hope, abandon religion, try again, fail, fight, scream, grieve your compassion, damn the murderers, damn your father and damn your parents, damn your peers, damn the boys you met in high school, damn your middle school religion teachers, damn the people that killed them, all of the people that killed them, all of the politicians who started this, and who continue it, and all of the people who believe in an evil god's word and hold hate in their hearts and laugh at a person's queerness and say that the fight is won. they are all responsible. they killed this child. they all did. pray that hell is hot for them, and pray that there is a heaven just for queer people, and pray that there is a heaven for you, too, you despicable, evil, sick, disgusting fucking dyke.

The youngest daughter
You heard about me a lot,
She mentions me all the time,
They mention me all the time,
How she had to protect me
from the problems I've never caused.
You heard about me right?
But what do you know?
The lazy and unreliable one
in every story?
That's only natural for you to believe,
Because you know I believe that too.
The one who is admired,
The one who is loved.
And the one who doesn't care,
never try to be enough.
One who's "too much"
all the damn time.
And I know you heard about me,
And I know you heard,
How I spend a lot,
Someone your blood and flesh,
gets not as much as you thought.
Mom favours her,
Dad loves her the best,
She does whatever she wants,
a luxurious nest.
You practically heard this a lot, what I'm going to tell you,
Listen to me even though you know–
They sacrificed a lot, for building her life,
She did nothing, but she's the one at the edge of a knife.
Uncivilised, uncompromising and not so nice
No matter who becomes a virtue, she's always the vice.
The oldest's anger and dissatisfaction,
maybe not always it's the case,
But whenever the question is raised,
"They love you the most, they treat you the best"
Arrogant, rebellious and the unpleasant,
She gets that alot, that's how you describe the youngest.
And for whom, parents never cared about you,
And for whom, you had to refuse the last piece of cake.
For whom, you had to give up on your room,
For whom, you'll not be praised even for how much you make.
And you try, to go back on words, to change the fate,
because of the little girl, you want to, but you cannot hate.
And I guess y'all know about these,
The cat, the mouse and the piece of cheese.
And the cat leaves and moves out,
The mouse didn't know how to cope up,
So that's why she always shouts.
But then, how about reading some things unknown ?
What happens to the girl, why doesn't she smile anymore? Why does she always frown?
Did she have to take the responsibility of always being good?
She didn't need to be compared, she didn't need to be called rude.
You were busy complimenting the comparison,
An Individual, who was never known and given a reason.
Good or bad, she never wanted them,
You all made her the antagonist here who loves to complain.
And with the tag of being spoiled one,
she became the alter ego of yours,
The princess with a large mansion
And who never endures.
Someday you leave,
Making her all alone,
She never cries,
She has now grown.
It's the best, cause you never want to see
The teenage self in her eyes again,
Where everything is immature- love, happiness or pain.
She never had the idea of how the world works, right?
She said, "no I'm fine" whenever you charged her,
But the question in her eyes didn't surrender.
Hopeful- she wanted you to try a bit more,
"She never shares, she just knows how to close the door"
You wanted to be a teacher, punish for her mistakes.
She just wanted a sister to share her aches.
Hard or soft, whatever the feelings were,
She just never trusted you again,
And why would she do it?
You became a traitor
You never took the share of her pain.
And where were you, when she was on her knees,
Praying to make it all stop?
You were not there when she got home.
You were not there when she was trying to build her rome.
She never blamed you for choosing your happiness.
But why's that different when it comes to her?
Why can't you all see
That she too has a lot of scars?
To have nothing,
It must be hard, it must be bad,
But I had you,
Then why have I always felt sad?
I cannot describe the mixed feelings,
Maybe this all happened because of us.
I love you more than my life,
I cried a lot, weren't my eyes enough obvious?
I was not a criminal, nor you were,
We could have made it better, I swear.
But you never ever tried,
And I always denied.
You left the room, you left me alone,
Now you ask me about my feelings? Why have I never shown?
Was it so easy for you to abandon everything?
I know it's not bad, but why can't I do nothing?
TELL ME TELL ME I WANT TO KNOW,
don't you know that this crappy delinquent always feels so low?
After all this time,
After screaming for so long,
You hear the depth of my voice,
What about my continuous melancholic song?
Can't you see it falling from my eyes?
Can't you see I'm tired of tossing the dice?
Constantly hoping to earn a six,
I'll pick the pieces up in order to fix.
I refuse to believe in cracks,
I will try, I'll try to give what it lacks,
But you can never give me back, the years I spent yearning in vain,
Even if you try to have a conversation with stories from the memory lane.
Distanced soul,
Unattached roles
How do you think it happened?
How do you know it's not for the best?
Because that's way she became her,
That's way of the youngest.

Understandable Identity [11/9/23]
my hair is in two tight braids
at the bottom, they merge into one
I didn't do them by myself
And I adore the feeling of getting them done
By someone else
My dog has a hot pink collar
It complements the colors mixed in her hur
she paddles up next to me
she tilts her head, asking,
"I love you; what are you doing?"
What am I doing?
I'm keeping myself grounded
everything should feel very real
not philosophical
and nothing like last night
I had three presentations this week
I abhor the whole ordeal
but it feels really good
to look really real
to look like I know what I'm doing
My ducks are in a row
but sometimes that row is a circle
I get things done
I always get them done
just with an added layer of stress
I sit, I read, I go, I return
it's simple and normal and beyond
but is there more, like everyone says?
or is it just a
Dream?

Grief
I am so miserable
I just want to crawl in a hole
And never come out
Does that sound reasonable to you
How am I expected to cope with my grief
It’s not as easy as it seems
I just want to be left alone
Leave me be
To rot away in my own misery
Why must people bother me
When they don’t intend on following through
Stop with the fake pleasantries
You’re ruining my mood
Even more
Why would you
Invade my space
With your empty words
Of phoney care and concern
You just want me to be alright
So you can use my brightness
As a light
For your own darkness
You don’t really care about me
Just leave me here in my grief
It’s where I need to be
And if you really cared for me
You’d understand that
You wouldn’t demand
That I speed up the
Process of my grief
I know it’s messy
But imagine how hard it is for me
For a second
Put yourself in my shoes
Do you really think I’d choose
To be this way
Do you really think I want this for me
I don’t have a handle on this quite yet
Imagine how hard it is for me
To wake up every day
Having to realize
Over and over
That my mother
Has gone away
Imagine how hard it is for me
To breathe
When she no longer gets to
How am I supposed to
Make new memories
When I have enough
To last me centuries
I’m tired and I just want to sleep
For an eternity
But even that wouldn’t be enough
To replenish me
Even that wouldn’t take away
Any of my pain
Imagine how hard it is for me
Without the woman who carried me
In her body
For nine months
How is it fair
That I’m still here
And she is somewhere
Else
That isn’t here
With me
And her family
Imagine how hard it is for me
To have faith
When all I want to do
Is escape
My reality
I miss my mom
I just want to talk to her
I want to hear her voice
I wish she could tell me
Everything is going to be alright
She was so beautiful
Her favourite colour was blue
I wish that I knew
Her
More deeply
But I thought I had more time
I thought that at some point
I would be ready
To let her know me
I never could’ve guessed
I wouldn’t get that chance
I miss the way she smelled
And the way she did her hair
I miss the way she dressed
And how she never cared
To impress anyone
She was so sure of herself
So confident
And free
I can only hope
She’s at peace
Wherever she may be
Leave me be to rot away in my grief
For as long as I please
It is mine to keep
And you can’t take that away from me
I lost my mother in November. I’m still having a hard time processing it. I hate this so much.

Resta ancora il tuo
profumo sulla pelle.
Delicato come la mano
che accarezzava
le mie paure,
soave
come i baci
rubati al tempo.
Di noi,
ora
rimane
una fitta coltre
di neve.

But why? is the question that continually circles my brain. Why this of all things?
The paths my mind takes to solve all the world's problems are as familiar as the looping sidewalks that beckon me forward.
Blisters rise up on my feet. My ankles rubbed raw by boots that break me in. They didn’t last six months before being worn down to nothingness. Each day I
turn to familiar music, melodies that distract from the aching of my calves. It holds me back as much as it propels me forward.
To walk is to save myself, is to find healing, is to find answers. I wait for the open wound in my heart to turn to
callus and scar. Each step tears me open once more.
If my soles burn,
I’ll stave off the fire that consumes my soul.
Just a little farther, my salvation could be just a few steps away, just around that bend.
Keep moving forward. Don’t stop. Don’t look back. Keep going. Keep
walking.

Inside of a Petco sat 32 unique betta fish.
Inside of a pond just 5 miles away swam over 200 wild fish, a plethora of unique plant species, a fresh batch of 29 tadpole eggs, and 31 tadpoles that had just hatched.
Inside of an office sat one person without a clue about fish, but a passionate rage toward Petco and their cruel practices.
Inside of the Petco, about 3 minutes later, sat 20 new betta fish that had just been delivered.
Inside of the pond, 30 seconds later, swam over 200 wild fish, a plethora of unique plant species, a fresh batch of 28 tadpole eggs, 31 tadpoles, and one that had just hatched prematurely, but perhaps if fate were to be in its favor, could live for a few more days.
Inside of a tall, beige minivan, 5 minutes later, sat the passionate man, on his way to Petco.
Inside of the Petco, about 10 minutes later, stood the man, with 52 unique betta fish in his shopping cart.
Inside of the pond, 12 minutes later, swam over 200 wild fish, a plethora of unique plant species, a fresh batch of 28 tadpole eggs, 31 tadpoles, one that had just hatched prematurely, but perhaps if fate were to be in its favor, could live for a few more days, and 52 unique betta fish.
Inside of his home, 6 hours later, the man slept easy, happy with himself for saving the fish.
Inside of the pond, at the same time, swam 127 wild fish, a few unique plant species, a fresh batch of 12 tadpole eggs, 8 tadpoles, and 48 unique betta fish.
Inside of the pond, a few days later, was almost nothing.

In this life, for all the time, 
I'm refusing to be a lover, 
And I'm letting you go, 
I'm letting it go, 
Tearing my soul into pieces, 
and leaving without you. 
In this life, 
I'm accepting my fate, 
In this time,
I'm letting the stars stay the same. 
And not giving my heart 
an opportunity to strive. 
In this life, I gave up on you,
I gave up on trying. 
But let me remind you, 
once, twice, over and over again, 
I'll change the fate, I'll wreck the stars, 
I'll write the destiny, 
God forbid, I'll not be born again. 
In the next life, I'll meet you first, 
In the next life, I'll not let you go,
I'll not let this go. 
So take an oath on love, 
In the next life you will be mine, 
In the next life, there will be no choice, 
In the next life, you'll be designed for me, 
And I'll be yours, hopelessly. 
When the time comes, you'll be a lover, 
And I'll find you longing for me, 
you'll be my lover. 
In the next life, I'll not let you be unhappy, 
I'll not let your tears fall,
We'll be in love, too much and alot 
So take an oath on my shattered heart, 
I'll be the shoulder you ask for,
I'll be the lover you crave for, 
I'll be the name you chant all the time, 
I'll be the place you find a home in. 
And I'll not let you bargain, no. 
I want this all, in the next life 
I'll be selfish enough, I'll not cry alone. 
In the next life, I'll turn the world over, 
If it's not you. 
And it will be enough to have you with me, 
And then, God forbid, I'll be born again, 
God forbid I'll look at anybody else, 
Taking an oath, that life will be my salvation, 
that life with you echoes my redemption.

Vulgar love
Make me breathless
Tie me down don’t leave my sight
May your bones break next to mine
Give my your eyes to taste a drop of life
Let me lay between your thighs
I’m yours if you’re really mine
Play your songs
Till I’m under your spells
Enchant me with your vulgar love
Please don’t let me go yet
The night has only just begun
Make me love myself even harder
I’ll be yours
But just for tonight
Don’t leave me broken
I need your touch
To feel alright
Give me some cherry cola
And put your lips all over mine
Make me breathless
Tie me down don’t leave my sight
May your bones break next to mine
Give my your eyes to taste a drop of life
Let me lay between your thighs
I’m yours if you’re really mine
Play your songs
Till I’m under your spells
Enchant me with your vulgar love
Please don’t let me go yet
The night has just begun
Make me love myself even harder
I’ll be yours
But just for tonight
Touch me all over
So that I’ll feel alive
Tie me down don’t let me go yet
The night has only just begun
Give me cherry cola
put your lips all over mine
Kiss me till I am breathless
No more oxygen in sight
Make me helpless
Take my heart
Make it wasted
till you can call it love
If you want set my heart alight
Then go ahead by my lighter
Get me high don’t let me down
Take me higher
Play your songs
Till I’m under your spells
Fully bred and broken
Don’t let me go yet
This ride has only just begun
Don’t leave me hopeless
Sing me your vulgar songs
Put me under your spells
And babe just
Hide the crime
Take my humanity away
With just a touch
Kiss me like the night is nearly over
When really it’s just begun
Bite my heart till you break it
Get it wasted
Till it’s love…
May your bones break
Next to mine
Tie me down don’t let me go yet
The night has just begun
I’ll be yours
If you’re really mine
Don’t let me go yet
Please me with just a touch
The night has just begun……..

Nana joined Gramps in the coat closet
A death may never be painless wether it is the dying or those who live on pain is felt and denied it's right to be. I’m mourning a life I never got to see and a death more years ago than the time I knew them. Did I know them? Or did I just cry at their funeral
