Cradled

Trust is supposed to be mutual but I know that was not the case. As he fingers slid over messages hed assumed I would erase. I dont understand what the big deal was i didnt do anything wrong.. Yet he cradled me after hurting me. Assuring me i was safe within his arms. I have nothing to hide. I have always been loyal to him without flaw. Yet i know his disapproval just by the look i saw. I dont ever leave my room. I dont ever talk to anyone without consent. I do what I'm supposed to Best believe I'm heaven sent. I go to school alone and come out to him waiting. If i didn't run to him he'd accuse me of hesitating. Truth leaps past my tongue like it was born to be spoken. But looking down i know he's mad just by the tone he's spoken. He smashed the stereo so I couldn't listen to our song. Then blamed me for his outburst like it was my fault all along. He questions my intentions as if I've ever given him reason. The type of man to stab me in my sleep then ask me why im bleeding. He assures me that he trusts me but I know that's a lie. So here I am again. Penning heartaches lullaby. X 2016
