please understand.

it isn't that i don't trust you.

it's just, i've been hurt so much and i hold so many things inside my chest, things that i have no idea how to let out of my shut throat.

and i am so very, very afraid sometimes, so very, achingly lonely inside of myself.

please show me how to open up.
for everyone that I have pushed away, and flinched back from in terror. For the friend who reached his hand out to touch my head and I flinched backwards so hard I almost fell and shook.
