“I've always given myself in
small doses and sometimes
nothing at all
careful not to share the best
parts of myself with someone
who could turn out to be the
wrong person
protective in terms of my heart
and soul
understanding that most of the
people I meet will fall short of
my expectations
and so I've learned to expect
nothing
sometimes my emotional switch
remains off
you can't get hurt if you feel
nothing”
