I was beaten

Broken

Abused

Thought there was nothing more to lose

Love was long lost

A lie

A myth

An idea that I would miss

I let it go

Moved on

I healed

Determined, my heart I would shield

Then I awoke

Saw light

Shining

Your glowing face I was finding

Renewed my hope

In love

In life

That one day you could be my wife
