irreparable damage repaired
I am strong
stronger than you ever gave me credit for
and he sees it
he sees all the things you didn’t
loves me in all the ways you couldn’t
supports me in all the ways you wouldn’t
never hides from me
never chides me
stands beside me
rides with me on the journey
while letting me be me and him be him
and it works
I don’t weep in the shower
sleep in a different bed
give up my power
or leave things unsaid
problems resolve through considered words
I am heard
I am valued appreciated adored
anger goes unstored
and I
am strong
