Imagine how it feels...
Imagine how it feels to see them
They don't see you
Remember the warmth of your mothers hug on the coldest day
Now forget it
Recall your dad's slight smile as you walk in his front door
It may have been the last time
I have children that love me
Or so I thought
Imagine this
To know how I feel
Is to know me
Powerful!
ReplyDeleteNothing so powerful as the truth.
DeleteI just came across your YouTube channel and I felt that I needed to thank you. It really helps, knowing that there are others out there who understand what I am going through. Our past experiences seem scarily similar, as do our fathers. I remember when I was a young girl, I loved to learn, I was so full of life and I, too, wanted to be an archaeologist. My dreams were squashed and I never did attend university. It wasn't until 2 years ago, at age 30 that I realized that I had spent my whole life in fear of displeasing the congregation. Not fitting in with "the world" and never quite fitting in with the congregation either. I just couldn't do it anymore. I haven't been disfellowshipped (yet) but i've been shunned, pretty much by everyone. I guess i'm still in the transition phase but I care less and less every day about what everyone thinks.
ReplyDeleteAwesome! Glad you are finding your way to freedom and a great life!!
