Illusions (Photo credit: azuk)
I thought I knew her
like the softness of my glove.
This bitter cactus.

Eighteen pounds just lost
Still image of a fat girl
Bloated, in the glass

Daughter flies out fast
not looking back, just forward
She was once my girl.

LOL, second person to like the first one best. I like it too. 18 is just a start believe me, more to go, but am just being very “healthy.” VERY.
