I've been hurt before,
I don't want to be hurt again.
I'm happy as we are, and thats a lie, but if you feel it is not enough,
Or what you want,
Then let me know, don't try and keep it from me.
Do what you want or must,
I have no wish to stop you, nor right.
But don't lie, or decieve.
It's hard for me to trust anyone as it is;
Harder for me to trust someone like you,
More than a woman;
A woman with the keenest of blades and sharpest of aim.
A woman I care about.
I can't trust easily, it hurts.
I want to though, and I can.
I'm getting there.
I'm trying.
Don't make it any harder for me to get there than it is,
Please.
Don't let me be wrong,
Please.
Don't hurt me,
Anymore than you seem to have to everyday, already....

Author notes
Written as the thoughs came, and about a friend I'm currently "with" in a casual sense. She seems determined to use it against me sometimes it seems, and sometimes I just want it to be "us", more than friends, but as you can see, there's some major problems with me about that. I hope that helps this make sense.

This had a strong melancholy tone to it that I am usually not very impressed by... however this piece really pulled it off so I give you props for that. I do think it could use more imagery but as I see this chi most likely a personal piece you weren't going for story telling, more expressing emotions which is fine. Overall, I'd have to say, not bad.

Sounds like a one way relationship...hurt in love can leave you scared for the future with others..I hope you find your way, even if it is not with this person..self is sometimes better then hurt...alone is not as bad as we all seem it is...thought provoking words of love..thanks for sharing
