i’m so lost and confused tired of my tears and my screams leaving me silent my hoarse voice and tear stained cheeks mean nothing to you there is no remorse or guilt in the way you treat me i’m sorry you say but those words are hollow and hold no meaning to me they are locked in a box deep inside my mind is this what love is you have broken me and now i don’t know who i can trust i’m afraid i am no longer loveable my body and mind are in too many pieces for someone to try and put me back together but that word try is another word i have locked away because you have taught me that to try is to fail and to speak is to disappoint but as you taught me you beat me down so now after you there is nothing left of me for someone else to love and how do i explain why i have nothing left and that the scars covering every inch of me are from you how do i explain why i think this is love
