Don't

Don't

A Poem by Hanah Gotski
"

For its said- "Sometimes it is better to stay alone, nobody can hurt you then."

"

Please don't.


I know you are trying 
to break my walls,
Searching for my lost smile
The pain I hide, you know it all.


And I know you are different.
But I won't let you rekindle my flame
I'll keep hiding my broken pieces
Underneath the decorated frame.


I can't risk a new storm in my life.
It's not your mistake, the fault is mine.
I trusted them and they left
Staining my white dress with red wine.


I let them in, as transparent as I am.
But they? Smashed me and dropped me down,
Fragmented me to pieces 
That can't be fixed now.


So don't try to pick my pieces
For it will make you bleed
All I am is shattered glass
It will cut your skin, red and deep.

Lovely write, reads smoothly! Unfortunately when our trust is betrayed often the feelings ripple out to others, we don't like to be vulnerable. It's however important to take a leap of faith and get in the game again. Some very nice lines. R xo

"Sometimes it is better to stay alone, nobody can hurt you then."
this is so true
It's always difficult deciding whether or not to trust someone, especially when we've been hurt before. It's uncomfortable to be vulnerable. It all comes down to trust & a willingness to take a chance. Like the old saying says, "Nothing ventured, nothing gained".

True words!
I don't know. Some people love sadness. A safety of a sort.
"So don't try to pick my pieces
For it will make you bleed
All I am is shattered glass
It will cut your skin, red and deep."
In my life time. I was tempting by the woman who accepted little. Thank you Hanah for sharing the amazing poetry.

Yes you are right and you are welcome.
I certainly like this part. I can see myself here. Someone who is willing to love again yet,feels afraid to be left behind. Such a wonderful poetry.
Thank you for your recommending this one. :) :)
