Yeah I feel like goofing on this is just like...goofing on people for having emotions. Like poetry is supposed to be like this, the whole point of it is getting emotions out.
To me this sounds like a pretty good methaphor for an abusive person. Anyone who can will avoid you, only those who get stuck on the spikes will stay but be hurt by them.
To me it sounds more of a lonely person thing. You are lonely, like any other human you want some basic social interaction too but you go into the shell of loneliness and avoid or repel people who want to talk. It's more of a paradox that many lonely people face
I guess but imo in that case something like a literal shell would have worked better. Thorns can hurt people, inside a shell you're just isolated but not hurting anybody. So at the very least this is a very confusing analogy. Idk if I seem asenine now but I'm autistic and this metaphor just felt poorly thought out to me.
This is a great poem
And also a legitimate point - people do actually push away the people who try to love them…
This is actually the only actually deep post on here, I can unfortunately relate to it
deeeeeppppp
This is actually fairly well written.
This is a pretty deep and interesting poem, it’s the truth

An irrational method, zero empathy deserved.
I crossposted this from r/2meirl4meirl to r/iam14andthisisdeep after seeing this decently upvoted comment (score=77) written 90 days ago by /u/FarrahKhan123, that seems to suggest that this post would be a good fit here too.
I waited 90 days1 before crossposting in case a human might've wanted to crosspost this themselves.
I also checked on repostsleuth.com2 before crossposting, to make sure this wasn't already posted before in r/iam14andthisisdeep.
If you think this was a mistake, please downvote the OP; I'll remove posts with negative scores.
