Only Exception
Living in constant chaos.
Living in a constant war.
I never fully trusted.
I never went all in.
I had been burned too many times to have peace of mind.
Until I stumbled across my sedative to daily life.
I fell so fast.
I fell so hard.
I trusted fully.
I went all in.
Avoiding all types of conflict just to appease that scared little girl whom I carry daily.
Avoiding all types of conflict to keep home a safe place.
Permanently scared of the fall from the high.
Scared that the person who adores you will suddenly see the way you see yourself.
And I will be left picking up the pieces of my shattered heart.
