When I was young you held me like I was the only egg in your nest. You held me so close to your heart and protected me from all the wars of the world. You fought my pain and let my heart beat with happiness within your cage.

Now I am your unknown wife. The space between my thighs is a place where your misery goes. My tears are a consent to the secret sexual life we have. During the day you are a father that every child wishes to have, yet at night you are a monster that consistently haunts my dreams.

Someday I will rise above your head. I will let the skeletons you’ve stored in my closet out. I will fly high into the sky and look at you squirm with pain beneath me. Someday I will be your God and you will worship me!
