Pain


I write about pain & hurt because I'm scared to hurt. I'm scared of pain but I've felt it before, It strangles me & as I gasp for air- I tend to lose myself in the dark clouds of reality. Reality is something that I close my eyes to because I'm scared of the truth. I don't like to hear lies but.. the truth is ten times harder to bare. 

Pain.

Hurt.

Abandonment.

Regret.

Lies.

Trust.

Betrayal.

Depression.

I'm scared of you, but you seem to hit me everytime. 

Hit me until I have nothing. 

Hit me until I'm crawled up into a corner, crying with my eyes flooded with fear and my body trembling.
