People are who they are and you can't ask them to change for you because if you loved them, you'd just accept them, right? (I feel like I've been through this problem before but I can never figure out why.) But if they loved you, they'd at least try to be more considerate of you, right ? Or is that asking for too much?
I've been going through a lot of these internal struggles lately and I still can't figure out what the answer is.
It’s like you lure me into your cave.
This cave of comfort, security, and safety.
But it’s also Confinement.
Internal confinement.
It’s not that I can’t leave.
It's that I don’t want to anymore.
It hurts to leave.
It hurts to stay.
It hurts more to leave.
You set up this trap to let me trust you.
Then in times of trouble, you put me out as the scapegoat.
You sacrifice my happiness for yours.
I don't even think you realize what you're doing to me
which is what makes it so innocent.
So sad.
You're oblivious to your own wrongdoings
and I'm here to help
but I don't know how anymore.
Should I even help?
I love you too much to expose you to the truth
because the truth hurts
and I can't let you bear that kind of pain.
So I try to
but I can't anymore.
I'm tired and weak.
You've broken me over and over again
until broken seems almost normal now.
I've become immune.
Callous, even.
Broken is normal now.
