I am told I should love you
but I do not.
I do not hate you
but I do not hate you.
You were their physically
but never emotionally.
I suffered the abuse in silence
just stuffing it in.
Setting up walls to protect me
Walls that block out love.
Not learning how to love
Learning fear and self-loathing
They are my friends
Warning me about the world.
telling me to stay safe
so I stay in my box
I am safe
Not happy though.
Walls are comforting
but lonely.
Learning to move on
It is hard.
I can do it
Either alone or with you.
