is like a sandwich: no matter which way you flip it, the bread comes first.

The version of me you created in your mind is not my responsibility.

The thing about masks is that someone always sees the string behind your head.

Being a survivor of emotional abuse is fighting daily battles in your head with a person you no longer have contact with.
#Mental abuse is much more painful than physical abuse because you are consumed by your own thoughts. I think that after being hurt so many times I created a shield where I don't allow anyone to get close to me. I love being friends with people and I enjoy having friends. But, to be close friends with someone for a lifetime and to share each other's secrets, wants, needs, etc. sounds like a complete nightmare. If I had one wish that could be granted it would be for me to have never been born. My ultimate wish is for the all the people who have met me to unmeet me. Then I wouldn't be such a burden on anyone. I no longer wish to die, I wish to have never been born. If I had the power to turn back everything I would give my parents a better child and give my friends a better person.

...and long after I have given up,
my heart still searches for you
without my permission...

They begged us to be careful, to be safe, and then told our brothers to go out and play.'
