You told me once how you came to be the man you are today insecure easily startled by excess of emotion. How your father would hit until you stopped crying and you learned to stay still as stone in the face of pain (men don't cry). This is why I never know when I hurt you. or when you're afraid. You disappear inside yourself your eyes impassive. I want to comfort you and you can't ask for comfort. I want to reach you you can't be reached. I want to make it all right for you to feel I want you to be safe with me. Old habits die hard mechanisms of survival even harder. |
