A Tormented Soul

A tormented soul I’ve never felt worthy of love I’ve always been a tormented soul When you grow up without seeing A loving relationship by your parents You don’t learn how to love The tension was always thick You could cut it with a knife Parents shouldn’t stay together Just for the sake of their kids If you don’t love each other It damages us We learn from you When we do find love We don’t understand it We run from it We hurt everyone around us Remorse isn’t enough We become bitter And lonely Never understanding what went wrong To be forever tormented By what we don’t understand Do I blame my parents I guess I do You thought you were doing the right thing Not letting your kids come from a broken home But we are damaged Nobody is really to blame We just hope for love For someone to teach us What it is to love But when we let ourselves be vulnerable We feel unworthy We become cold and distant Because that’s what we saw growing up That is our normal To forever be A tormented soul
