I've built up my walls.
Brick by brick, I set up my defenses. I intertwined them with reason so as not to get hurt. Not to open up my defenses. I've finished me wall and wrapped it in spikes so that no one would bother. I set up a fog of 'toughness' around the spikes so no one would see. No one would know there's something to defend.
People don't bother anymore.
My friends tore down all that though. That's why I'm scared. Scared they'll hurt me too. I've had enough of that happening to me. So? I may be 'insensitive' and 'mean', but if it means I don't show my only weak side, I'm ok with it.
