Dear Diary,

The tears I cry hydrate my face.

The smile I show lifts my soul.

The pout I make is to get you to help.

The laugh you hear quiets my mind.

The dance I create moves my thoughts.

The hugs I give keep me warm.

The kiss I keep leaves me whole.

The toenails I paint help me stand tall.

The hair I’ve braided keeps manipulators away.

The teeth I’ve straightened keeps doubt at bay.

The love I’ve shared keeps them around.

The words I write help me to sleep.
