My Esme

Beaten, broken,

Her troubles unspoken,

Her heart holds a hefty bruise,

After losing all to lose,

Her son, her baby boy,

Her love, pride and joy,

All lost.

Bruised, broken - hearted,

Her pain had just started,

She was to face more pain,

Her demons, not yet slain,

She lost all desire to live,

But not her desire to give.

She was a survivor.

I saw her, apparently no longer to be,

But I could see,

Your slight movement,

How your fingertips bent,

So, I sank my teeth into you,

It hurt you and me too,

For you were in pain once more,

And I opened a new door,

A new way of living and life,

And later as my wife,

I was never happier.

When I look into your kind eyes,

No pretence, guise or lies,

Just truth and love I see,

Love for me,

And our family.

My Esme.

A/N - So what did you think? It's short and I may do a longer one from Esme's POV in more detail. Do you think I should? Well, thanks for reading - now tell me what you thought of it, please.
