You gave me life
yet took my light
and always thought that you were right.
No matter what
I tried to do
your actions always made me blue.
I needed love
I needed protection
you gave me fear
and constant rejection.
I always wanted to shine my own light
you kept me small and scared of the night..
I yearned for love
I yearned for safety
I wanted a family
to hold me gently.
Instead I found more toxic pain
with men who treated me the same.
Child abuse is very real
you can’t just ‘get over it’
you need to heal.
My Child within
🙏❤️
