I am my worst enemy

My mind wanders far and wide

Most days this is good

But some nights, it turns against me

And the faces of the ones I love

Become the masks of the demons that torment me

 

I was never good with unconditional love

I understand the concept

Just don’t believe it

So I try my best not to need it

 

Same way deep inside

I trust no one

Not even me

Because I know what I really am

And I’m not that good

So how can I believe?

That you truly love me

That you will never hurt me

When I know

Inevitably I will
