There is a scar on my heart’s ears
It’s from all the years of abuse I got used to
It makes it hard to hear when someone says
I love you
There is a scar on my heart’s ears
It makes it hard to notice when someone is being a true friend
And doesn’t just want something else in the end
There is a scar on my heart’s ears
It makes it hard to realize that when a stranger stops and stares in your eyes
You are their prize
Someone they’ve always wanted

I felt every word you wrote . Excellenct explaination regarding trust . I think it is difficult to trust these days .
interesting ideas… I don’t trust people much either these days.
This really good. I like the metaphor of heart's ears. Very creative.
It does indeed. And how shall we ever believe again?
