BRAVE ENOUGH

She wants to be brave.

Enough.

To leave me, and stand on her own two feet.

She wants to be

The woman in my reflection

But I am the woman in her.

Caution.

I have been made of promises

broken many times.

She wants to be herself. Brave.

Forgetting childhood ended only yesterday

And her scars are not the healing kind.
