Despite my action, you came over to me and sat down.

Beside me.

My breathing became heavy and my head started spinning.

I just wanted you to leave before I had to.

But at the same time I wanted you to stay.

I wanted to know more about you.

But I couldn't.

I couldn't even make eye contact with my own mother.

Because...

I'm afraid they hurt me too deep to be able to trust again.

To be able to even look at someone without becoming anxious.
