When a man has two faces they become abusive.

*The Pendulum* By Kathy Lynn *My feelings and thoughts* *Are like a pendulum* Sometimes I am sure of what I feel Then when I least expect it something happens Doubt enters my mind Making my thoughts full of fear For I have been there before I don’t want to go again The pendulum swings making me unsure Ever so slightly thoughts enter my mind Who are you and what do you want from life Will our desires clash and make life miserable One day I feel I know a good and loving man Then you will get angry and scare me again So the pendulum swings to and fro Sometimes making my heart hurt so For I know what pain is like Deep within were no one can see How easily threatened I can be From the past to the future The pendulum slowly swings Mixing all the emotions of the times You have shared with others before me For I have not known but one His pendulum swung wildly Back and forth changing his moods *I suffered for his insecurities* *The ability to compete in his world* So I paid the price with pain Over and over again And the pendulum swung

An abusive lover is one you have to runaway from as fast as possible as they rarely change.

I thank God above I have no reason for fear, the pendulium stands still here and when it swings , we swing together with a love. Too many go through life walking on broken glass. Life is too short to live it in fear. thank you for sharing.

Newfie Hugs, Rose

Harsh but honest and real; you write of a theme that is sadly far too common in this world/life, Kathy Lynn. I wish you love and peace and all good things,

You speak from the hip and from the heart in this one. We all have faced pendulums and time clocks in our lifes and loves and it is often all too hard once the pendulum of love swings too far to get back on track...but we must always try for without love what is life?

Ouch! I think that my pendulum swings more than my hubby's...the doubts and fears and insecurities that I feel...while he...he remains constant true and immovable in his love towards me. I am blessed, I know.
