I Cannot Be Loved

Dark is my soul. Cold is my heart. I built up these walls to shut everyone out. Not for myself, but for everyone else. I’ve done terrible things in the past, And more will be done, I am sure, For history repeats itself. I am drawn to the dark side, A magnetic pull. Please, Do not follow me into the shadowy abyss. Stay far away. Those who say, “Don’t go into the light” Have no idea what they are talking about. I would rather be blinded by warmth than left in the dark. But the nasty truth is this: I can’t change who I am. This is just me. It’s in my blood, my DNA. No matter how much I try, I will always be living a lie The me that you know is not really me. It’s a façade. A mask. A lie. Please do not try to love me, for I cannot be loved.
