The Truth Of You Poem by Heather Kemper

Hello my love I miss you
I miss your voice I miss your smile.
It's been so long since I heard you
it may still be a little while.

So many things have happened
so many things have been said and done.
Some were so amazing
they gave me hope that we had won.

Some were mean and stupid
things said we can't take back.
Hurtful, vengeful words were spoken
causing us pain we see as fact.

The monster that you have come to see
caused by words that I've said.
Is not the truth of who you are
but what I created in your head.

The man I see is strong and smart
and he cares more than he shows.
He finds me when I'm lost in the dark
no matter what he knows.

You are the hero that I call
not the monster who's on attack.
I wish I could change for you the relection
then the truth you could finally see looking back.
