I like to think of poetry as statements made on the way to the grave.
I love you so much I’ll never be able to tell you; I’m frightened to tell you. I can always feel your heart.

It is not possible to be truly balanced in one's views of an abuser and an abused woman. As Dr. Judith Herman explains eloquently in her masterwork Trauma and Recovery, “neutrality” actually serves the interests of the perpetrator much more than those of the victim and so is not neutral.
