Here

praised, loved, joyful
he visits me and gives
his forehead kisses & protective hugs.
Her name is like a curse in
which we can't say aloud
we just nonchalantly talk.

There

verbally abused, screamed at, vented up
I never say anything.
Neither does he
afraid of her himself
too cowardly to stand up for us
we just soak it up.

When I visit my dad (parents are divorced) and step mom, she yells and blaims everything on me and my sis. But she is so scary, that even my dad doesn't have the courage to stand up to her. ;(

I really don't know how to comment on this since it obviously comes close to you personally. But I will tell you, it is very powerful and probably for that exact reason. I will be praying for your situation.
