Its so much easier to push someone away, than to let yourself become vulnerable. To give them the power to hurt you.
Showing your true feelings is relinquishing all your power.
You're trusting them not to take advantage of your weaknesses.
And that, is an absolutely ridiculous notion.
Once weakness is spoted, it is used and abused, untill you are just a quivering mess lying on the floor, wondering how you ever let yourself get into such a situation.
I will not be: Vulnerable Powerless Weak
I am strong, because people don't know the real me, and that's how its going to stay.
