Dignity

-
You took away my sunshine
Snatched away what you believed was mine 
Tried to lower my self-esteem
Considerably destroyed my dream
Made me feel less worthy
Surpassed the limits of cruelty 
In the name of support, 
You annihilated my sanity.

I remember how I wandered for hours,
with my corrosive skin
The drops of acid were on me 
But I saw morality was eroding.

I am no more a puppet on a string
While my wounds heal and so do my soul
Holding on to my morals, I stay strong.

So that nobody can even dare to hijack my dignity.

But what remains unchanged is the choices being made. To stand strong together even if it's a perilous nightmare. That's how a marriage blooms. Coming together by erasing the existing gloom. Sushma
