Almost Lost

Asked her if she wanted me, she said more than you know.
Asked her if she was ready, she said with everything that I am.
Asked her if she loved me, she said she would let it show.
Had her for a split second. Love her more than she knows.
Her personality was split in two.
She learned to love me and earned my trust while Priscilla was subdued.
Took her to the rodeo, tried to show her a better life
but her emotions and her mind were in a fight.
She has to fight her inner battles. All she knows is abuse.
She doesn't realize she is just being used.
Has so many talents, so many strenghts, so many attributes
but she can't seem to get passed the abuse.
Priscilla feeds, trys to keep her safe,
but Priscilla doesn't realize she is the source of her pain.
She is in my heart, in my mind, in my soul
But she can't get over her need to be controlled.
So I will wait for her even though my heart and my eyes swell with tears.
She is a symbol of everthing I wanted, everything I hold dear.
Will always love her, know she will always love me.
She has dreams, she has ambitions, she has to fight for what she believes
But first she must get off her knees.
She was so close, she needs to finish what she starts.
She needs to revert back to what stole my heart.

I hope she finished... Felt your sorrow reading your poem.

Poetry is finer and more philosophical than history; for poetry expresses the universal, and history only the particular.

Aristotle (384 BC-322 BC) Greek philosopher.
