Thrust In The Center Of The Storm

Thrust in the center of the storm,
all I could see was you;
Brewing at the zenith of your strength,
so hard to get through.
But I dared rising up
and chose to let you go,
before ruining my life
 and lead me to an absolute fiasco.

You’ve embraced more 
yourself and your vices,
Always coming home intoxicated
All you’ve were void promises               
Inflicting sufferings, bruises…
I couldn’t endure anymore. 
So exhausted!

Thrust in the center of the storm,
all I could see was you;
Cyclone’s eye was at your throne
thrusting me so harshly to,
But I was fervor enough
to ask resilience from up above;
Survived by His grace,
I've moved on easily lifting my face.
Having found a peaceful life
I’ll rebuke my license as your wife
Your daughter and I will be together
I can be both her mother and father.

Susan Ashley Date: 3/22/2025 10:38:00 AM Dear Len, my friend and soulful poet, your poem is a powerful rebuke to abuse and tells of a poignant recapture of one's life. It takes courage to lift one's face and find a peaceful life after living with abuse and your intimate verse portrays this determination to make a better, safer life for oneself and child (children) with both strength and tenderness. I stand with your poetic voice rejecting abuse, my dear friend.
