Is Your Man Controlling?: How To Avoid Indirect Emotional Abuse

She loves him an enemy out of hell Always meets him with a smile But her soul is crying Everyone loved him, family, friends neighbors and his colleague No one can look behind the curtains In the window frame flowering flowers He exercises extensive mental control his voice as a mockingbird sings If you only knew She accepts it both out of empathy and love Everything seems so beautiful and perfect No one knows the reality she lives in a constant nightmare 20.11.2020 Sun :) - A-L Andresen :) Copyright © All Rights Reserved Juxtaposition Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Silent One 2nd place in the contest (fictional poem)

Congrats on your win. You spoke the truth; however, I also know men who are abused by their wives, girl friends, partners. They always run to their rescue and whims, they should run away. LOL.

Telling it like it is but never should be. I walked that path for a while, and when I came to a fork in the road, I took a different route. Good points, Anne-Lise.
