I Trusted Before

Why won't anyone save me?

"Because you let no one get close enough"

I let people get close before.

They laughed at my weakness,

Laughed as they watched me shatter,

Laughed as my skin tore apart,

Laughed as my veins were set aflame.

They laughed at my agony.

To them, I was nothing but a joke.

Why should I trust anyone else to care

When everyone else only pretended?

They just wanted to see my pain.

Why would anyone be any different?

Such strong feelings of brokenness and abandonment, I love the writing and can relate.
