I loved you
Completely 
Accepted you
Without question 
I gave you my world 

You reflected 
& mirrored
My thoughts 
You twisted my love 
Until it died 

You tried
To break me
Almost killing me 
& my children 
We prevailed 

A new life 
A new love 
You never
skipped a beat
How wonderful 

I'm slower 
More careful 
But not empty 
Love surrounds me 
It's peaceful 

Soon
I will bloom
Again we will
Laugh & love
United we survived 

Your memory
Your nightmare 
I carry 
So as not 
To be swallowed again
