Hurts when you're closer

Too close, way too close,
Those are the ones that get hurt most.
Claws digging in deep,
Losing losing sleep.

Secrets trying to hide,
Trying to stay locked up inside.
Can't let them in, can't let them in,
It would be a dirty horrible sin.

Everything turning dark and grim,
Then there's him.
Too close too fast,
Nothing will ever last.

Friends here and friends there,
Leaving broken pieces everywhere.
Self centered fix yourself,
They can't see I need help.

Days too sleepless and too dark,
Taking pills and slicing trying to leave a mark.
A burn here, a cut on her heart,
They ask, but she doesn't know where to start.
