YOU WERE NEVER LOVED, MY DEAR (Healing Shame From Childhood Wounds) By Roxanne Elaine Smith
When you had a narcissistic mom
Where’s the next hit coming from
Not a hit with fist or hand
But words and eyes that punch and land
*
Devastating to your soul
Nothing solid to take hold
No mirror to see your worth
No smiles and comfort so you search
*
You search for reasons, blame yourself
Shame and doubt instead of stealth
It robs you of the truth and time
You were sweet and so sublime
*
You were shining, curious love
Sent to earth from up above
But chose the hardest path to start
A childhood starved from feeling part
*
Everywhere you reached was blocked
So you gave up and heart was locked
Trust too much or not enough
Attracting all similar stuff
*
Until you realize the pattern here
You were never loved, my dear
Start from scratch and loving you
Oh it is so hard to do
*
At first because the triggers are
Relieving painful trauma jars
Shocking you right to your core
“How did I survive Oh Lord”
*
You didn’t! No you gave up YOU
And turned into a mask not true
Obedient and needy so
People-please and perfection oh
*
Trying oh so many things
Until your true voice finally sings
But shame comes up with every truth
The pattern hidden from your youth
*
Every time you were you, you were shamed
Have to get YOU back again
Ignore the shame and keep on moving
Rise above shame and keep on grooving
*
Yell at shame, you are not mine
Dance out shame, I am just fine
Shame keeps coming every time
Hiding doesn’t heal the crime
*
Only way is to see the child
Inside the parents who went wild
Spilling out their pain on you
Everything it was not true
*
You were perfect whole and right
Their fear and anguish like a blight
They felt safe because of you
Your light it was so bright it’s true
*
Not fair of course you deserved the world
You knew that you could heal and unfurl
Figure it all out you would
And love yourself just as you should
*
And finally learn strong boundaries
And attract those loving hercules
Those strong people, inner strength
Like you they’ve been put up to the brink
*
The death of soul and now awake
They search for tribes to quell and quake
Masterful and sensitive
They forgive and give and give and give
*
And you know you are one of them
And renewed hope on journey stems
Trying listening within
Trusting that love is what went dim
*
Self compassion is your chore
As shame returns with each great score
Reducing size or is it growing
Heal emotions and new knowing
*
Center, grounding, peace of mind
Solid forming, still maligned
Defensiveness and anger flare
But forgiving quicker in thin air
*
Believing in the moment’s peace
That’s the truth not all the fleece
Still confusing childhood wounds
Where’s the love-so many moods
*
Why the deep and painful purge
Feel relief when follow urge
Writing helps you flow it out
The truth is innocence about
*
All of it you chose but why
More than you can fathom, sigh
Others seem to simply thrive
Private hell they do deny
*
Good to have access to love
Reach for heaven up above
But also know you are whole and kind
Lovely you, you shine, shine, shine
*
Then loved ones blame—it all comes back
Another painful self attack
Oh the grief you must allow
The child must cry it out oh wow
*
Will the tears they ever stop
When your happy bubble popped
Self-reliant muscle test
You are getting strongest yet
*
See yourself that child hugged
Held and cherished sweetest mug
Smiles and happy to see you
Healing all that you’ve been through
*
It’s okay to cry a lot
Over things that most forgot
Disappointment to your core
Life goes on with all the sores
*
Want them all to go away
Triggers say hello today
Do not put it all on you!
Bask in love all the day through
*
When you find a sea of pain
That is someone else’s train
Let them drive on their own track
Do not let them take a snack
*
Send them love and move along
You know how you are so strong
You do so much for others
Time to be your own best mother
*
Nurture, comfort, love your soul
You are here to Rock n Roll
Everything is now alright
You are purely Love and Light
