Description
I expected nothing of you,
like you expected nothing of me.
I'd have given you the world,
but never the room to breath.

That was my mistake.
All I did was try to take.
I never shared
why I'm so scarred.

I fear you knowing.
I'm used to not showing.
It's weird when I'm this at ease,
I fear you seeing my debris.

Of past haunts, and hurts.
His hand slipping down my shirt.
Hiding under my bed,
holding my throbbing head.

Seeing my Heart cry.
Unwilling to meet his eye.
Steely cold gaze,
as I stood in the doorway.

“What are you going to do?”
I said nothing until his hand flew.
Connected with my face,
a smile in the blood, I did trace.

Wondering if I should change?
Or if in the end, it would be the same.
I was a little girl, of only five.
This is what I feel I should hide.
