Head swirling
Steady as a rock
Mind reeling
Standing still
Heart thumping
Beating not
Really feeling
Then again not
The touch of a hand
In absence dwells
A heart torn apart
Whole and well
Imposing a thought
Clean slate
With no legs to walk
Run away
Heaven or hell
No way to tell
Love it
Leave it
All thoughts prevail
I write about DV, ya’ll know that. OM has been instrumental in helping me to increase my readers. I gained double the followers in 36 hours and I am glad of it. The more our voices as survivors are heard the greater the chance that we can help a victim and support other survivors.
Thanks OM. You did an amazing job.
Please feel free to reblog, retweet, FB or all three.
There is only one way to break the silence and bring this ever growing nightmare to the forefront of the minds of others and that is to SPEAK out in the capacity that we can.
Say No More
My good friend Jenni over at Unload and Unwind made this post for me as she knew I was feeling a little down yesterday and I wanted to share it with ya’ll. It touched my heart and I want her to know just how much her friendship means to me.
I think that sometimes it is important to remember how far we’ve come and take joy in the journey you’ve now set for yourself. I thought that a very brave woman who I’ve met here [Surviving Domestic Violence] could do with a reminder of just how much she has changed her life.
This post is one that expresses my desire as a woman. Being an abused woman doesn’t exclude me from a woman who needs to be loved and cherished. I deserve that. We all do. We are worthy of love and care. We deserve it.
I want and need a simple man. Which brings to mind a song I love and reminds me of a man I know and adore.
