Sometimes, we expect too much from people we trust around us that we start depending on them. Any wrong move or word they say turns into back-stabbing that may affect some of us, sometimes more than an actual stab. We tend to keep those wounds hidden, hidden inside, more like invisible wounds. Our body is full of them.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


The reality is

To some point, we've all been stabbed

emotionally, and deny it

but our heart has absolutely

never given up its ability to heal,

we just chose for it to stay that way.


And the pain is real,

because we're afraid to get stabbed again

Even if it was from the people

Who you thought

Would help you heal

But were the knife all this time,

And your heart, the victim

Your eyes, the witness,

Which lead you to bleed,

A wound so deep under the skin

To the present day

Its a fight you know you can't win.
