Blood and Water

They ask me: Why are you so cynical? Why are you so heartless? And I tell them When I was six, I gave My trust My heart To my family. Because blood is thicker than water. But they Mocked my trust Tore my heart Till it bled. Then, when I was thirteen, I gave My trust My heart To my friends. Because even though water is thinner than blood, Water is solid when it gets cold. But they Betrayed my trust Crushed my heart Till there was nothing. So: Fool me once, Shame on you. Fool me twice, Shame on me. I will not be fooled thrice.
