Once upon a time there was a woman who lived in great peril.  Her every day was lived in great fear, for she never knew if or when she would be beaten to death.
Then one day a knight came and saved her.  Over the next few days she fell in love with him.  Her knight made her believe she was a queen, he made her believe that she had meaning that she was worth loving that she belonged somewhere.

She made it her purpose to make the knight happy, everything she did was to make him happy.

After awhile they had children and were married, but he grew tired of her and he complained about her not making enough money or that she questioned him. Soon she came to feel she wasn’t good enough for him.
The more she tried the more he complained and the more he demanded.  And this is where they are stuck,  but lets go back to happy times and explain more.

The knight spent much time trying not to rush the woman, for he wanted her to be happy.  All the woman wanted was to be loved.

The knight would kiss her longingly and lovingly before he took his leave.  He would hold her hand out and about.  Not everything was perfect but the woman felt loved.  He would tell her he loved her.

Every day the knight would call the woman just to ask how she was, if she needed anything; or wanted anything; it made her smile just to know he thought of her.

Even tho there were struggles as long as the knight was with the woman, she felt she could conquer the world, the knight treated the woman as if he would fight to his last breath to protect her.  All of this is sad because somewhere in their journey the woman hurt the knight and he changed.

Never again did he tell her he loved her he stopped kissing her longingly and lovingly, he never called her. When she would cry he would crossly tell her to stop.
But as I write this the woman has hope that she can regain the love that is lost.  With all her heart she wants her knight to love her and accept her love for him and only him.
The woman has no desire to ever be with another.
Her heart, body and mind are for the knight.
But can she reach him?

Well the knight has left for good there is now no hope for the woman, or the children.
