Every time I try to express myself, I then become the bad guy. Why can’t you validate my feelings? You beg me to tell you how I feel… And then as soon as I do, you somehow become the victim in my story. Why do I have to play it safe to appease your ego? I’m exhausted from trying to swim in your oceans, While ignoring my own. Keep it simple and sweet. Yeah- I’ve tried going down that road, The driveway to a safer place. But yet, that seems to not be enough. When I take that detour, And give you just a piece of how I feel… Then I’m “keeping secrets”. And holding back. Now I’m showing you that I don’t trust you. And you’re right, I don’t. Because when I open up and become vulnerable with you, …. what happens? They say an insane person does the same thing and expects different results right? So yes I’d rath...
