sweet serenity escapes
the mind of a woman
trapped in a sea of regret,
tethered to a man of repeated misery
she finds no solace in the sunshine,
it is darkness, her only true friend,
that serves as her lover
the darkness tells her no lies,
offers no false comfort,
only the bitter truth;
her’s is a life without light
Oh how this resonates deeply within my own truth. YET no more. You once said to me that I would find my voice R. And I believed I would because YOU believed I would ❤ xxx

This is so true. There are those in my life for whom this is their truth, and it’s so sad!

Yes, it is. So damned hard to watch those you love caught in that darkness.

I didn’t remember this one. Glad not to be that woman anymore. Or not quite as much. A little less each day…
