But I can write my feelings down on paper. Maybe this book can help someone else get through hard times.
You can love someone, but you can’t make them love you back. Finding and then losing love, it hurts. It makes it hard for you to trust again. But you take small steps when you think you’ve found love again.
I live in Napoleon, Missouri. It’s a small country town of about 269 people. I have three brothers. My dad died on September 4, 1976, but my mother is still alive. I had been sexually, physically, and mentally abused most of my childhood. Some days I just wanted to die than keep going through the pain I was going through. At the age of eighteen, I got pregnant, moved out of my mother’s home, and got married to the man I loved. The only thing is he didn’t love me the way I did him. He divorced me and remarried two months later. I remarried four months later to a man I loved, but he didn’t love me either. So I divorced him. I’ve had a few relationships after that. None ever lasted long. I’ve been single now for eight years. I enjoy my freedom now. I enjoy writing; it’s how I express my feelings.view less
