Traumatic Stresses

You have a colorful soul.
Everyday you think about your career in some way.
Your passions make you shine.
Your fear, hurt, & confusion take over your life.
You fear the good because you can’t have good without some bad.
The bad hurt you before, you don’t want it, you don’t want anything to do with that feeling again.
Someone you loved growing up confused you.
A kid wanting love, fun, & full of life with so much energy.
Got rejected all the time.
Didn’t have the energy for you.
All you wanted was acceptance, love, attention from the one who refused to give it to you.
Questioned yourself.
You we’re taught that it’s weakness.
You got to be tough, worry about yourself your little tiny circle.
You’ll get run over if you don’t, you’ll be ruined if you don’t learn that.
Hard but you learn it after you get hurt.
Must be true you think.
Gotta focus.
Then you meet your biggest weakness.
Love from a beautiful soul.
You fall.
You are scared of it, you put your glass shield up.
Protected but you still want to see.
You question it.
Hurt, you wonder if it’s fake, will it walk away again, will it start to reject me.
Curious enough you say Let’s see.
...
“I love you..”
...
Heart stopped for second thinking
...
“I love you too..”
...
You fall, you struggle with your demons.
You give, got scared, remembered you got to be tough.
It’ll ruin me if I’m not tough.
But love is so nice I’ll allow it, I’ll try but I won’t be hurt again.
She’s perfect, I can’t give in at the chance of love leaving.
I need space.
Can’t get too attached.
Why does she have to be good, why does she love so well I don’t know what to do.
I don’t want this.
My perfect nightmare.
She’s perfect, but I’m not.
I’m.. I’m not.
I don’t deserve this...
