want to tell you
how I really feel
how far the pain runs
I know that you sense it
can see it in my eyes
You are afraid to touch me
for afraid I may break
afraid something will trigger
you can not fix me
I want to tell you
about my pain
about my hurt
why I respond
The hurt that I face
prevents me from speaking
afraid of rejection
you telling me no
You will see I am damaged
maybe beyond repair
once those walls are down
the hurt is more
than I can bare
For now just hold me
let me stay protected
allow me to let you in
as the others surround us
keep protecting me
keep loving me
keep me safe
I will let you in
