Physical & Emotional Abuse Support Group
Abuse is a general term for the treatment of someone that causes some kind of harm (to the abused person, to the abusers themselves, or to someone else) that is unlawful or wrongful. No one deserves abuse, period. Abuse can be emotional, physical, or sexual.
Sometimes I write poetry to vent/journel all the emotions I shove down inside. Most of my poetry is dark and while I don't mind sharing it, it most likely is not helpful to anyone who is already hurting and I don't want to upset or trigger anyone who may already be having a hard time. I don't feel very strong myself right now, but if this poem helps anyone to feel that there is light at the end of the tunnel, than it is worth it.
Love and light....
"True Love does not falter..
true love does not fail,
Thought sometimes it may stumble...
true love will always prevail.
Find it's way by Angel's flight...
through bitter tears and darkest night,
Hush the fear that haunts your heart..
bring you peace when your world is torn apart.
It will soothe your rage and deepest pain..
Shine like the sun through your world of pain,
Give you purpose and reason for living..
True love is not cruel and is always forgiving.
I do not dream of fortune and fame..
Just respect and honesty, no more games,
I do not dream of adoration or burning desire..
for that will become ashes from a once raging fire.
I just want to look in my lover's eyes..
and not see blame, regret or lies,
I just want the truest friend..
whose faith in me will never end.

The image at the end of looking into your lover's eyes made me think of looking in the mirror and accepting myself and never letting myself down. For now, that would be a great feeling for me. Maybe a lover of the male persuasion will fit into my life later on. :-)
Thanks for sharing!
