Women who Love too Much Community Group
WHEN BEING IN LOVE, MEANS BEING IN PAIN... This group is to help women through the journey of realizing they can love themselves. To help realize that they are capable of having a happy, healthy, whole relationship and break the cycle of abuse and heartache from loving emotionally unavailable men.
I have just started reading a new book by Darlene Lancer called Conquering Shame and Co-Dependency.
There is a poem at the start written by her, I thought i would share it with you.
Also I thought we could do a list for new/old people to refer to… sure its been done before though!
I really like the books written by Darlene Lancer, she also did Co-Dependency for Dummies, really simple and easy to read…
TURNAROUND
When did you turn left?
instead of turning right?
A long, long time ago
You faded out of sight.
You danced a tune for others eyes
And sang for others ears,
slowly donning each new guise,
your own voice waning through the years.
Neglected needs and buried dreams
Secreted by shame,
Truth sacrificed for love,
Still failed to curb the pain.
Up and down the road again,
Attempting to reclaim,
Trying to remember when
you silently forgot your name.
Turn inward and listen,
Your own voice faint you'll hear,
The only one you've longed to love
Was always waiting near.
