old ghosts
return to haunt
The house she grew up in
hasn't changed since her teen years
Saddened

fading tulips
over the rain-soaked lawn
falling petals

writing
always a struggle
more so now
Another baby goes out
failing to make a splash

gym buddy
is a phone app
full of exercises

some of the abs ones
seem impossible
for a fat girl

I try, anyway

She wonders where her determination went
