You Did This
You made me what I am
Yet you look at me with bewilderment as I turn to stone
Once I was soft, sweet, and full of love
Now I hide beneath a hollow shell
Afraid to be truly seen by anyone
Knowing if they do they will never love me
You gave me this armor
When you split me into a million pieces
You fell in love with the softness that lies in the center
But it was you that tore at it until it disappeared
And now you wonder where it is
And still you expect that same kind of love
The love of someone that sees true beauty in the small things
You tore that from me
As a monster that desires to drown all hope
And haunts the dreams of the innocent
I long for the time before you
All I want is to go back to the person I was
Before you suffocated me and stole my light
There have been those that deserve that part of me
Because of you I can't let anyone in
Because of you no one touch the softness that I hide
I hate you for that
You took apart a piece of me that you never deserved
I scream to have it back
And all that answers is the dry hackle of who you made me
Silly child, love is lost to you forever
