Abused Woman

His vibrations were so low
She felt herself falling into depth 
of abject darkness

Sequestered now in the
most diabolical feeling of dejection and despair

She loved him 
So she stayed

Until her light was extinguished
While waiting for one sign of
approval

Which she did not receive

Hello Caren … governments everywhere must put more funding towards driving down this scourge. A horrible way to belittle women - thank you Caren - Lindsay

Luckily we have much funding in the USA toward abused women and children shelters.
