My soul knew what it was doing

Silenced, Shamed, Rejected

For the first 2 years of my life I did not speak.

My first day at nursery, I sobbed in the bath.

“ There is no room for me”.

My soul had signed up for this lesson and it wasted no time.

Always the good girl.

Constantly giving love to receive love.

Emotions silenced by an overbearing masculine.

Shamed.

Rejected for emotion.

There was no room for me.

Deaths early in my childhood, left me starved of attention.

A well of love inside me, constantly giving yet struggling to receive.

I look back now and see how this was setting me up for life.

Attracting the same patterns in my intimate relationships.

Always the ‘other woman”

Hidden.

Rejected.

I lost my voice again.

How would I get it back?

This is how women grow.
