finding love after abuse
I am with a man
who loves me
gently,
wholly.
I want to melt into
him,
be soft,
malleable.
Instead I feel
rigid,
trapped
like an animal in a
cage.
how long do you think
it will take
until I can become
free?

Thank you very much!
This is powerful. I get it. I hear you. Be patient with yourself.
Thank you!!
Been there. It is difficult, but there will be a time when the past does not have a hold on your present and future.
Thank you so much! I hope so!
