Bleeding Loyalty

I've paid the price.. My deeds are done Fought many battles.. Some lost, some won. I'm loyal to a fault.. I will never change. It's just who I am.. To some that's strange. Too giving in nature.. I have a kind heart. But kindness, it seems, Can tear you apart. I've lifted up others.. Yet stood all alone, Gave all I had.. With none of my own. I've weathered the storms.. Felt joy and despair, Yet still, I keep loving.. Still, I still care. Though scars line my soul.. And wounds often ache. I’d rather be broken.. Than ever be fake. So judge if you must.. But know this is true. The world may be cold.. But I won’t be too.
