My eyes were closed I couldn't see, My ears were shut I couldn't hear. The tourment the shouting the abuse, I felt I just couldn't be of any use! My love was blind reality wasn't mine, Thinking and believing that everything was always fine! Then suddenly but slowly changes began occurring Strength began to fill my bossom And something inside just kept reassuring The curtains from my eyes were slowly opening when suddenly the light was pure and bright.. Reality was there shining in a great delight My love just died as easily you see.. Joy entered my life giving me hope to persevere! Everything that was happening broadened my understanding, Discovering myself was just so outstanding! Now all that I can do in my escape to freedom.. Is hope and pray that someday I will see him...... ..the one who helped me see again!! This poem is dedicated to Craig..from Oregan!
Reason for writing:
The reason why i wrote this is because I suffered great abuse in my marriage..it was such a battle..trying to live through the abuse..and finding the courage within me to escape!
One day i met someone who showed me exactly how I desereved to be treated..like the QUEEN he said i was!..And i finally discovered who I could really be!
I know there are many woman out there that suffer great abuse..but just can't find the courage to escape or value themselves...I hope that someone like Craig enters their lives..to love them and respect them the way he does me!
Truthfully yours,
Caroline.
