Vulnerable

I feel a little vulnerable
Showing this to you
Showing you a part of myself that I thought I left behind
But bad habits die hard
And sometimes slipping back into them is inevitable for me
Somethings like smoke curls around my brain
Saying you'll stare at me different
Like I'm wrong and disgusting and you'll leave
Something with a voice like thorns yells in my ear
Reminding me to never show my soft spots after years of hardening my skin
Something with a calm and soothing mind protects my heart
Reminding me that people worry out of love and will stick with me if they are true

I feel a little vulnerable
Telling all of this to you
