i think my problem
is that i'm scared to love.
there's been countless times
when someone has
waltzed right on in my life
as i accepted them with open arms,
but yet, they could never stay.
and it all came in waves.
the mind games are getting boring,
i'm not so pleased anymore.
i'm tired of being picked up,
held for a little bit,
then dropped right on the cold floor.
and people wonder
why it's so hard
for me to open up to others.
