Can'T Breathe

my heart aches past breaking I have to hunch to breathe my ribs are sore from crying no tears left more sorrow than can be counted more fear that you are at the hands of a monster who beats you and disregards your sobriety and you go back go back for more exchanging faces, still the same man how did you come to have so little love for yourself when I love you so? I always always loved you so.

we are praying for her still, and she keeps going back no matter how many times she is "rescued" or goes to rehab... we never give up.

Do not blame the victim ... blame the monsters ... get the victim out of there ... prayers have better powers still. Love
