My heart broke as i heard my mother cry herself to sleep and i so afraid .... Hid under the covers but i couldn't possibly hide from the endless pain i felt ... My innocence shattered .... I tried to shut out the screams ... Still Too young To understand why they couldn't just stop .... All i yearned for was for some peace .... while seeing love ... Soft ...sweet ... Tender love .. So
I promised myself i would not follow their path
I would love so very passionately ... falling hopelessly in love .. With trust ...respect ... Gentleness ...
Sweet kisses instead of constant pain ..... But as i close my eyes i can still remember when i didnt quite recognize daddy ... The fear he caused and now
It's so difficult  to open the doors of my heart ...to allow someone into my life ... What if he just wants to hurt me like daddy did .... I forgive him .... For i love him .. My father he will always be
I have to .... I need to so i can allow myself to be loved ... So i can set free ... I want to love like no other ever has ..... I know i can ... I have so much love to give ... So much happiness to finally feel ...
