Caring Man Poem by Donna Nimmo

I was so lonely and so scared
You a gentle soul who really cared
Such a kind man I'd never met
A man that could help me forget
The violence and abuse of my past
A man I could fall in love with fast
You became my trusted friend
My broken spirit you could mend
I talked to you about every fear
You never caused a single tear
You married me and I forgot
The abuse I don't remember alot
I buried it deep down in my soul
Healed my scars and made me whole
