NOT SURE WHAT TO PUT THIS UNDER, IT IS NOT FICTION BUT IT IS A STORY, MY STORY SILENT~TEARS

It all began so innocently. I was young, only 21. I had my child from my teenage years. then one day a friend introduced me to you. You seemed so kind, so gentle, so loving. How was i to know.

It was a cold day in march when i met you, but i never felt so much warmth. It was a hot day in july when i married you, but i never felt so cold.

in the beginning you were the one i loved. kind, gentle, caring and loving. you were an ideal husband and father. you loved me and you loved her, so i believed.

it began slowly. one night, one fight. all the "i'm sorries" the next morning. As i looked into the mirror that first morning after i could not believe what i seen. i could not imagine that the reflection was my own. my green eyes had turned to black. my nose, once straight, now had a swollen look to it with a slight turn. my god, what did you do to me?

months went by without a fight or an unkind word. Until one day you came home too soon. dinner was not done, but my dear you are two hours early. the response i received was not of kind words or loving gentleness. i got a punch in the face and a slap in the head. as i lay on the ground from the blows you just gave to me, i got a few kicks in the ribs. how kind of you my loving husband.







This was the first couple of months of my marriage, i had three years of this, but i found the door and i ran for my life. In the three years i had two more children, both are now safe with me and my second husband. There is no more pain there are no more bruises and no more broken bones.

thank you for reading this
