It's hard for me,
to trust anyone.
It's hard for me,
to open up.
It's hard for me,
to let someone in.
So many times have I been walked all over,
So many times have I been left to the side beaten and broken.
Tossed to the side when the next best thing comes along.
Truth is,
I'm afraid.
Afraid that you will be just like the others,
Afraid that if I get the slightest bit attached you will cut the rope and leave me to fall with no one to catch me.
Truth is,
it takes me time to get fully comfortable around someone.
I tend to close myself off from the world unsure of what to do or who can I truly consider a friend
Truth is,
I'm a complicated person,
I know what I want, but I don't always know how to show it or express it.
if you give me your time and patience I will eventually show you who I truly am and what I'm made of.
I can be everything you are looking for and maybe more.
I know I have a lot of potential, but never given the time of day to prove it.
Truth is,
I'd like to be given the chance at happiness.
