The child that had her heart cut to pieces
Never cried because it was weak
She had forgotten how to

She was bitter towards the world and love
She had let her walls down to someone she thought she could trust
She was mislead

The child tried to build barriers
But the attacks were from within
She began to feel trapped within herself

She tried to fight
But the fights confused her
She was frightened

She thought she would give love another shot
She let her walls down
And all hell broke loose

She tried to pull it all back in
But the doubts, the insecurities
They slithered like snakes and got away

That is why, when you tell her you love her
She does not open up
She is afraid of how damaged she’s become

And doesn’t want to be hurt again.
