INSTINCT

When you hurt me,
I put up my emotional armor,
and buffet people away.
It's instinct.
But alas, I am not only human, but also human.
So I leave a little chink
for you, and only you.
That when you look at my eyes,
you may see into them.
And if you want to make me smile, you can.
And if you want to throw me into the abyss, you may.
Oh how I suffer in your shadow.
If only you would turn your brightness to shine on me again,
and stare lovingly at me, like you used to.

One of my favorite ones on her.
But it's about walking around feeling hard because she is being so distant, so I can't do anything in life and enjoy it, not hobbies, not time with friends, not anything.
I'm just biding my time missing her, and hoping for the best.
I thought about adding more lines.
