Do you ever feel yourself shrinking? Getting smaller and smaller inside, while you look the same on the outside. Where you can actually feel the emptiness that surrounds you. Like a beaten child, curling up tighter into a ball, hoping if he can make himself small enough, maybe it will all stop.
The moment of kindness, the stretched out hand, the pat on the head ..wanting to believe but all the while, waiting for the next blow to land.
No-one cares, those around you who know, say it will all be okay, or shrug it off. Or worse, make it even harder, by lying and telling you they have cut this person from their life. So they all become part of the problem, the pain, the doubts.
So in the end, all you have is you and you keep shrinking. Hoping one day, you will shrink so small that you will just vanish.
