Melissa Gray Poems

You let the mirror control you every time you gaze at its reflection,

You look at the glass and see your imperfections,
...

Dear Mama,

You always told me I was special,
...

All these natural fears,

Seem so crystal clear,
...

I never understood what it's like to feel pain,

I never understood why bad things happen,
...

I couldn't believe it when you said it was over,

After everything we've been through,
...

It's the story everyone has read,

The fairytale when two lovers wed,
...

Please don't leave me now,

I'm sure we can work this out somehow,
...

Breathe into my soul,

I'm giving you control,
...

Did you ever realize that you left me hurt?

Did you ever realize that you pushed me in the dirt?
...
