Isn'T That Better?

Sometimes I wonder why I let my walls down.
Why do I share anything with others?
Why allow anyone near?
Do I always set myself up?
Usually you just get dissappointment or worse.
So if you can just keep to yourself and never have issues
Isn't that easier?
Isn't it better?
To just not let others in 
And to never have disappointment?
