Bruised Heart

I wish I could show you my heart
All the scrapes and bruises
Maybe it would rip yours apart
Seeing what you've done to mine
You'd see your words sticking out of it
Like daggers in a target
You'd look at the bruises and ask,
"Am I the one who really caused that?"
I'd nod and a single tear may slip out of my eye
But you won't wipe it away
You won't even try
Because even though you're sweet
And your heart is truly sincere
You can't help hurting me
And confirming all my fears
Know I'll always love you
But I think keeping distance is best
Besides, how could a Trojan horse destroy Troy
If they never let it in?
