I've learned to have a defense against those who are unkind
A practically unbreakable wall ready to defend me for all those I know don't believe in the goodness of humankind
But that is not when my heart aches and falls apart
It is the times I have opened the doors to my friends and loves who I thought would never give me a bleeding heart
I had finally decided to take a chance, sure they would not breach my trust
But without a second thought, it is them who have taken a shot so that I can from now on only look at promises with disgust.
It was unexpected, heartbreaking losing my faith in men
Because from then on I strengthened my defense mechanisms determined never to have my spirit shattered again
I shut down the entrances to my heart
not just for some but for all
Never to be hurt again
