Leslie Montano Poems

The match in your hand
I knew
You held it firmly
Close to your heart
...

The clay figurine molded by her past.
Chipped away by deceit and deception.
Only to be collectively put back by love and strength.
...

Rainbow emotions after a stormy day
You left me there
Without a word to say
...

When I'm lost in the sea of chaos
With only my voice as a paddle
My body the boat
I'll give it my best
...

To thine own self be true
But what if it is hidden from you

Take a breath
...
