Have you ever seen a child’s heart break?
When the ‘Mom’ is taken out of the ‘My’
and
The only thing left from the’ Daddy’, is ‘Y’.
When we can only escape hurt through our dreams,
but we cant decipher why a Disney movie is not like real life,
Why haven’t we received our fairytale ending?
Y is he so absent-minded?
Its like sometimes he forgets get’s he’s apart of us,
like he harbors some type of animosity towards U & I,
but we are only children.
Have you ever seen a child’s heart break?
When once familiar faces, soon fade into the distance and become unidentifiable,
but still s huge amount of love resides, in one of the empty spaces of our hearts.
Have you ever seen a child’s heart break?
When we feel that pain, and nobody can heal it, except the touch of my mother?
Have you ever seen a child’s heart break?
When they antagonize our matriarch,
Invade our happiness,
and hijack us again…only this time for our Brother.
Still,
We haven’t grieved.
We paint this picture with watercolor,
because the turmoil of our lives mixed with our tears are full with confusion.
and created a paint so thick, only we retain the brushes to retell our tribulation.
And in this picture, we paint ourselves,
We’re are anticipating the next visit from our Mommy in our dreams.
We’re awaiting the re-embrace of our brother.
We’re hanging onto the hope that our father, soon realizes we are only innocence duplicates of himself he sees in our face.
But we are confused, because others refuse to believe our family is heartbroken.
Yes, we are comforted by our ‘Na-na’, because that is where the unconditional love is everlasting
The Root Our Faith & Strength.
You see it?
Frame it.
So the next time you’re asked,
“Have you ever seen a child’s heart break?”
What will you reply?
Because we are only one story, the anguish of one family…
Think of all the millions more.
With Love,
–The Heart Broken
