Stranger Danger

Your words hitting me like acid, burning through my walls stinging my skin.

Your disapproval dripping off every word soaking into me, poisoning my thoughts, influencing my actions.

Your blood flowing through my veins, but you couldn't be anymore of a stranger.

Every time I drop my defenses I ignore my heart's constant reminds stranger danger, yet I let you in for you to judge me.

I let you in to scrutinize my decisions, my future.

My life lays in your hands, what so you can ball me up and toss me into this world unprepared, undesired, and ultimately alone.

I trusted you and you left me naked and laying in the streets. 

I guess I should thank you for teaching me that blood isn't thicker than water.

I guess I should thank you for showing me your worse so I can be my best.
