Tremble.
Look at the one I love and feel afraid.
Have my responses timed.
Trust that I’m safe.
Feel guilty about what I’m willing to do.
Feel guilty about the jobs I’m willing to take.
Feel guilty for getting online.
Believe that I’m safe.
Tell someone my entire past.
Tell someone exactly what I’m thinking.
Tell someone that home is not okay.
Ask if I am safe.
Read books on how to communicate better.
Read books on how to love better.
Read books on how to meet a person’s needs.
Close my eyes and dream that I am safe.
