Distorted Reflections
Distorted Reflections
You hide behind a mirror
Wish you could only see what we all can see
You hide behind a web of lies
Wish you could only be free and feel what we can feel
How can you throw hard words?
And expect us to grow soft
How can you show us hate?
And believe you when you use the word “Love”?
Making us question ourselves
Making us a prison in your own insecurities
Sharing your guilt and your pain
Instead of love and encouragement
How can you be a mother?
And expect us to take care of you?
How can we learn to love ourselves?
When you only taught us to love you
And only you?
