No one told me
I had to wear
armor of steel
to guard my heart
from being torn
wide open,
from being torn apart.
No one told me
how the words
would pierce,
make me bleed,
as your brain deflects
the love you get
in desperation
to protect
your tender heart
from being hurt
once again
from abandonment,
from the perils
of neglect.
If only I could
help you see,
you are loved,
you are safe now
beside me here,
with your forever family.
No longer do you need
to fight or freeze…
for the first time
in your life
you can trust
in the truth of us
in the truth
you are truly loved.
