Innocent
Just beginning
Little girl wrapped in the comfort of protection
Not knowing what awaits outside
Exploring
Getting to know the world
Making friends
Creating bonds
Forever
Solid ties
Best Best Friends
Always together
Leaving
Creating a shell
Not prepared
Fear
Afraid
New people
New language
Want to fit
Again
More unbreakable bonds
Prepared for the inevitable end
But probably not
Harder shell
Building up
Insecurities
Covered by sarcasm
Found the place
True belonging
Shell deteriorates
News
Leaving again
Not believing
"Temporary" depression
Shell becomes armor
Making jokes
At my own expense
To cover up
The trepidation
Sarcasm
Inevitable
Bellicosity
An iron shield
The pain
Of knowing
I can never be
Accepted
Because no one
Will ever know me
Even I'm
Not sure who I am
But
I do know
That I'm
Broken

After being hurt it can be very hard to recover. Few of us stop to ask the question, "Who am I?". Thanks for sharing.
