If You Asked- poem

By, J. Lynn Dickson

If you asked me who I am
Maybe I would tell you
I’m a writer
A fighter
A giver
I’m a mother
Most of all

Maybe tears would spring forth
Maybe I would say
I don’t know
I hide myself
In a box
In a cave
A turtle in its shell

Maybe I would tell you nothing
And let the answer
Rest in the silence
