Don't

You've never walked a mile in my shoes 
You've never seen the cracks
Lining the walls of my heart 
Nor felt the pain of the many tears I've cried
You've  never read a single page of my story 
You've never heard a line to my life's song
Nor seen me at my worst 
So don't expect to understand my decisions
Don't expect to know how I'm feeling
Because those walls have long since been up 
I mean every word I say 
Every time I say I love you 
I mean every syllable
Every time my heart beats 
It's trying to make someone else happy 
But time and time again
I have gotten hurt
So when I see things 
And know they are not going to work out 
I'm not going to waste my time. 
I'm sorry if someone gets hurt along the way 
But that's life. 
We all get hurt and we all keep breathing
Because we have too. 
But before you make judgements 
Or believe you understand 
Just know you don't see the whole picture 
Just the chapter that your in.
