damaged goods i have so many scars to remember you by. the scar of knowing you threw all of this away just to get out a cheap shot, the scar of realizing that i'm not in love with you after all, the scar of realizing that i have allowed people to be verbally abusive towards me in every relationship i've ever been in because verbal abuse was so normalized for me growing up that i just expect it from people now. i need to stop deluding myself into believing that any of my relationships will be long term. i am too damaged. |
