I must always keep my guard up.
Because as so as I do I get hurt.
Why do I always let you in?
Because every time I hope that you'll let me in...

I've been hurt a lot through out my childhood so I got into poetry pretty recently. So this is something I wrote about a family member. (which is how I get hurt)
