The key to healing of domestic abuse is time.
Love is an emotion, not easily controlled
Pain is a circumstance, not easily addressed
Once a separation is made
The return to self begins
Strength comes in time
Life there from
Happiness and joy do follow
Then you will no longer feel hollow
The key is time
Varied in length
Varied by depth,
But it is the Key none the less
A struggle may begin in love
and reach the point of pain
but only through separation
will the pain end
and the love become tangible
and controllable
and the strength truly return
This may seem a silly poem
This may be an odd thought,
based on experience, it is the truth
and from my heart.
