about the transition of an abusive relationship into a complete opposite relationship
He dropped from the sky,
The clouds opened wide.
I didn't know at the time,
He would end up by my side.

Who knew the storm clouds would dissipate,
And the sun would finally shine.
Who knew he would end the hate,
And love would finally be all mine.

I had given up the fairy tale ending,
He brought with him Hope.
I could inhale deeply,
MY life had changed, with him I would no longer mope.

A warmth enveloped me in his arms,
Where before was blistering cold.
True love had finally found me,
I was actually good enough to hold.

His heart always open, his love so dear.
My heart thumps triple time whenever he is near.
The greatest gift he gave me,
He took away single handedly the misery.

He is my friend, my lover, my soul mate,
There is no other that could ever compare.
Many have tried to interfere without a care.
Yet he has stayed, it could only be true fate.

The greatest gift of all,
Took a decade to appear.
A spirit reborn,
A life with no more fear.

He rescued me when I was at my lowest.
His patience and thoughtfulness,
Drove the demons from my heart.
Though my heart was a tumoil mess,
He stayed....and hugged me ever so tighter.
My rescuer,  the honorable fighter.

Who am I?

Not the beaten up, frightened person that would hide.
I am finally me.
A happy, carefree, optimistic me.
The me that was buried deep inside.

I am FREE!!
He chiseled away the pain.
Now I want the whole world to see....
Freedom is WITHOUT the chain.

Who am I?
I am FREE.
A victory so sweet,
No longer will I retreat.
