He Tried To Love Me But I Was Too Broken

You question why I am so scared  
Because I have climbed on to the backs of
men who couldn't carry me
I worship at the feets of men who 
only worshiped my body
I have fed men who left me empty
I have watched men danced at the gaze 
of my attention only to walk away
