I love yous should bring butterflies
Not forced cries
They shouldn't inflict pain
And they shouldn't dig up buried memories
Heart wrenching fear
That's all I can feel
I miss when I could feel happy about that statement
But I've been conditioned to believe that it shouldn't be a positive statement
Tears me apart ruthlessly... I love you
Questions me constantly... I love you
Makes me wonder my worth... I love you
Screaming... I love you
Threatening... I love you
Abuse... I love you
So why should I ever believe it again
