Rose Colored Mirror
I realized that I saw myself more like the way he saw me.
The way that my imperfections didn’t exist.
How the things I hated about myself
Were beautiful
How the parts of me I never noticed
Were perfect
He would whisper my dreams into my ears in the night
Until the moonlight faded
How do I wash words like that away
Without feeling imperfect all over again.
I loved that carved image more than me.
But it was never real.
It was all just words from the part of his mind
That loved me the least.
