Everyone

Everyone is going to hurt me. 

No one will protect me. 

Because I don't deserve protection. 

Overarching statements. 

Generalizations. 

Yet I react as if they are cold, hard truth.

I'm sitting awake tonight. Again. For the tenth or eleventh time in two weeks. For perhaps the thirtieth time in six weeks. I can't relax, I can't sleep, and I can't see the world as a safe place.

My door here doesn't lock.

But the doors of my mind won't open.

Everyone is going to hurt me.

Please.

Prove me wrong.
