I didn’t wear my heart on my sleeve
For you to tear it off
And crush it underfoot.
I didn’t make a house of myself
For you to knock down the walls
And burn me alive.
I didn’t divulge my soul
For you to strip it bare
And shatter me like glass.
I didn’t cry in your arms
For you to push my head under
And drown me in my own tears.
So my question is:
Why did you?

Oh I like this one, with the fair question at the end. Well done.
