Mar 2019
you lay land mines on my safe space;
i try to retreat but they are too powerful.

your 'i love yous' hurt more than a rifle because
in the end
they mean nothing more than your promises.
both are broken and killing me piece by piece.

today,
i dodged one of your emotional land mines.
i am free, i am strong, i am me.

and you can't hurt me anymore.
