I’m hurting

I know you’ll probably say it’s stupid, that I should have been moved on, and that it’s time to get over it

But

It still hurts...

I had a barrier up

I KNEW better than to let it down

But with the effort you put in beating it down

I figured why not

And the minute it dropped

You showed me why I had one to begin with

So now here I am

One wasted barrier later

Left hurting
