Grilled Cheese Heartbreak

Grilled Cheese Heartbreak

Angry words spit like hot

butter. Love rescinded. Suddenly unbalanced.

Empty like an overcooked grilled

cheese. Nothing left to savor

but bittersweet love, now lost.

Cerise

Bold and exciting...
 forging ahead into new territory
Terrified yet not showing it
     finally stretching up to
meet my potential.
           It feels so good
                    to be here...
If you were here, you'd know what I mean.
   Cerise is what it is.
New and bold and bright.
         Too many people are afraid
     to express themselves this way, but not me.
           Not any more...
for cerise
     is who I am.
         If you really know me, this is not news.
You will smile and say, "I'm here. Take my hand.
   I need something a little regal today."
          You need to see
                 Cerise... embrace it and feel its energy.
