Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards

This poem is NOT perfect. It is the 1st draft. But I want to share it anyway...

Because of the love I have received from this board I am ALIVE. For the FIRST time in my life I am truly loved and accepted for who I am. In collge I had a few friends who loved me. I did not KNOW what love was...and I didn't recognize their love. That is probably because I was still being abused at that point in my life. I have now cut out anyone that is unsupportive of me! Other than those few friends and hubby, you are the first people to ever love me.

This poem is for ALL OF YOU!

"Love Saved My Life"

Abused and used
Twas all I knew
Then I met
You
Yes,
All
of
You

You love me
Unconditionally
Whether I am
Happy
Or
Unhappy
Pretty
Or
Unpretty
Funny
Or
Unfunny
Skinny
Or
Unskinny
Witty
Or
Unwitty
It is all
A part of
me
You love
Me

You love me
Because
I
AM
ME

You saved me
Gave me
Bravery
Helped me
Save me

I opened
that door
They cannot have
me
Anymore

I was scared
But you were
There
You love me
Bare and
Square
You do not
Care
Almost
Unaware
Of my past
glares,
stares
And scares

All
you
see
is
me
and
you
are
still
with
me

This
Love
Saved
Me

THANK YOU *hugs*
