Love crumbs

Comes and looks around like thief

how to protect myself
from them?
giving all was not enough
they want more,
perhaps my flesh…

moves around,steals,hurts with words and deeds,
from evil heart evil deeds…

explanation,
when not asked for.
like I am stupid,inadequate…
Like I don’t understand,
but I do…

consequences:
withdrawal,
self doubt,insecurity,sorrow,suffering,
loneliness.

why I do this-
why I tolerate this?
-I crave love,even love crumbs…
from people who hate me

who has power?
one who does not love.
