Open Invitation
I do this to myself again and again. Constantly letting people crawl their way in, letting them see the parts of myself i don't often show. I allow them to plant permanent positions in my life, and yet i am surprised when they only have temporary love. And once they hurt me, i shove them out so hard that i reel back from the whiplash of it all. But somehow, throughout all the pain i let my guard down enough for them to sneak back in. and the cycle starts all over again.
