Heartless
Cold
Distant
Emotionless


These are just a handful of names used to desribe me

Heartless
Because I'm slow to compassion
I find compassion as something to be cherished
Rather than just given out to anyone

Cold
Because no one talks down to me
Snarky replies and a sharp tongue protect you
Hurt or get hurt

Distant
Because getting too close is dangerous
There's a line not to be crossed between two people
If crossed, your pain is all your fault

Emotionless
For being an introvert
I feel like you
But not as strongly
But it's there
I just don't want you to see
Because that's too up close and personal
And because of that
You say I'll never love, never be loved
And then you wonder why I don't believe in love
You obviously don't show it
But you like to think you do

I'm not like you, and that's not okay
I don't why, but it isn't
Get used to it
I don't care
