Its not I don't believe you I don't trust you

Last time I encountered you, I heard your words before i saw your eyes

I stepped into your trap happily 

I escaped with scrapes bruises and cuts

I'm like paper

easy to tear and bend soft and delicate easy to ruin

people know my weaknesses and are careful to step around them

but you came and crumpled me up with no care

you tried hard to make me smooth again but the folds never seemed to fade

I am a plate

you throw  me against a wall

and I shatter

China flying everywhere and shards on every tile

I can stab you just as bad as you did me

now you say sorry

guess what?

Look across every tile and you can still see the shards sharp as knife

as white as your pale face

still broken
