Our lives were similar
Almost the same
We stopped being surprised after a while
We must be twin flames
But you started telling me things I didn't want to hear
Said you did terrible things you can never undo
Wouldn't give me details because you liked the eagerness on my face to know
What exactly did you do to her?
Then you started playing games
Said you didn't know if you trusted me
Asked if I was a snake
Told me its good to wonder if I am evil
As if you thought maybe I was
Our lives were similar
Almost the same
We were good little soldiers
Did what our abusers asked of us
Mine was staying silent
Covering up bruises
Covering up scars
Pretending that it never happened
Yours was more action
More pain inflicted on others
You needed to tell someone
What you did when you were out at war
But I need to pretend this war never existed
And you bring it up
As if you are still fighting
And im scared of what you'll do to me
In the name of being a good little soldier
