Who Spoke The Pillow Talk? Remembering Abuse

Were we really that sweet to one another? Did he really treat me well sometimes? Even if he did, he doesn't now. The sweet memories are gone.

Were we really that sweet to one another? Did he really treat me well sometimes? Even if he did, he doesn't now. The sweet memories are gone.Once he told me that he missed talking and dreaming together after sex. He missed the pillow talk. I wonder if he still misses it.

I’m not certain that I remember sweetness after love-making. I wonder if he’s thinking about someone else.

In a way, if he is remembering me, he is remembering someone else. Someone who felt cherished and nurtured. Someone who felt safe. Someone I was almost 20 years ago.

I want to be me with him again.

I wonder if I am remembering who was or who I wanted to be.
