The Princess Saves Herself in This One by Amanda Lovelace

5.0

This really hit me. . . poetry always has poignancy for me but many of these communed with my soul in a way of being heard and understood.

"That is what abuse is:
knowing you are going to get salt
but still hoping for sugar
for nineteen years"

"Sticks & stones never broke my bones
but words made me starve myself
until you could see all of them."


and so many others.
