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
