Hello again

Hello again.
Am I still your friend?
I've been gone a long while
but I've been through a trial...
                    or two
how about you?

My husband couldn't seem
to stop the threats he'd scream.
And his micromanaging
was rather damaging...
                   to me
can't you see?

I couldn't ever please him.
I'd apologize and appease him.
I tried to keep my joy,
not let his hate destroy...
                   my heart
I fell apart.

I walked away...
I couldn't stay.
I've taken time to heal,
to find my way, to feel...
                  again
Am I still your friend?
