terrified

It's reaching for something just an inch too far out

It's jumping to reach it, thinking I have it

Then losing my grip, slipping and falling

It's landing hard on the ground I forgot was there

It's them asking if I'm okay, me saying I'm fine, them hurting me just for the fun of it, poking through the cracks in my walls

It's me building another, stronger wall to protect myself

Reaching again, then jumping, and falling, breaking my heart again and again

It's doing it again, somehow thinking it'll be different this time

And you wonder why I'm so cold to people
