They know about my problems, Say that it doesn't matter. Say that they love me an will never think otherwise. They get close. Closer and closer. Then they say it, Those ******* words. "I love you." Those words that can tame a barbarian. The words that can calm the storming seas. Words of trust, acceptance, care... "The scars don't matter. They make you beautiful" "I'll never hurt you." Minutes, hours, days, weeks, months. It doesn't take long to get sick of me. That promise. Turns into a lie. That love turns into hate. Then I end up alone. Then I take the cold blade to the skin. The next day a nice person notices. We start to talk. I tell them my problems. They help me through them. They know all my problems. rinse, repeat.

Rinse, Repeate.
