DreamsA Poem by Natasha Montgomery
My mask shatters when I look at you.
I see a picture of you and it reminds me. Reminds me that you don't want me. Those dreams I had of us as a family? Us three? (maybe four one day!?) Shattered because you can't see the face behind. The warm, loving, caretaker. The glowing person who pretends to be so cold. I can be cold. I can be distant. It's easy. But I wasn't cold with you and I never will be. You light me up! I don't want to drown you with selfishness. Maybe I have only seen your mask, but I can feel you glowing. Just break for me! So I can show you what love is. © 2017 Natasha Montgomery |
