I know I'm not the easiest person to love
But you do and I don't know why
My question echoes in the silence
Your love bounces off the walls of my heart
Continuously, creating a beat,
A hollow sound, an unyielding shell,
And I feel safer inside
Because ever since I left simplicity behind,
Which cannot be undone,
I had my trust stolen and sold, and was
Trampled on by a march of cruel words,
Cracked smile and broken eyes,
A heart that ran cold,
Pouring out frozen words,
Made me a hard person to love.
