A single thought…
A single word….
And I can’t breathe…
The panic pours in tidal waves over my heart….
Once the pain hits…
I don’t know how to prevent the start….
Close my eyes as…
My whole world is torn apart…
But it happened once before….
Scars live in the silence and slammed doors…
Love with conditions is a chokehold in pink bows…
And only she can tell her own story, only she truly knows…
Listen with all you have, give all you can give…
But don’t take away her voice…
Don’t steal the air she needs to live…
