Not Yet Healed
Love is building your world around someone,
compromising, even
sacrificing, dreams
For Her
And then, a few years later, discovering what you've done:
You've given years of your life to someone who changes her
mind -
Who "sees things about us [she] never saw before."
Who feels bad about what's happened,
but who receives comfort from the new person,
the person that knows the "new woman" she is.
She has happiness, love, forgiveness.
Her days are filled with joy and wonder and new
experiences.
I have lost years of my life, most of my dreams, my
ability to trust.
I have gained many painful memories,
A heart with ugly scars,
and wounds
not yet healed.
