Night
I can't fall asleep ...because I don't wanna go home.
Tonight I finally met the little girl living inside me. I saw her there...crying and looking at me...I knew deep inside her she was so afraid, and I could read the fear and the feelings of helplessness from her eyes...my heart was ripped out again because I couldn't do anything to help her there...I told her that she was brave and did a good job, and dad wasn't her responsibility and she wouldn't have to hurt herself from that. But she didn't understand, so she kept on crying. If I could, I would give her a bunch of wild flowers, took her to the lake where the reflection of beautiful sunset glittering...she would be happy simply because of that. It was easy, but I never did so. Instead, I stood there like an adult, and I forced her to face things without tears just as what an adult should do. ...And as always...She listened and moved on...but I wasn't there with her.I was her.
Love hurts.
Love always hurts.

That's the deepest trauma buried into your mind. You already had too many struggles and confrontations about it. Differentiate between love and hurt. I believe that you will be more and more able to give your love to whom you love.
Thank you, I'll be willing to learn that always.
And I wanna face it because hidding doesn't help all.
dear babe,
just let her know, "it's alright. it's ok to cry and to be vulnerable. I'm always here with her."
