Why do we stray away from touch,
But are desperate for love?
Not letting our hearts breathe,
Not even wondering if
It would be too much to ask for,
Putting our selfish selves first
Yet forgetting to show the true emotions
Displayed in the eyes.
Longing for the affection we don't deserve,
Longing to fill the empty space
But forgetting to open the door
And letting nobody in,
Clenching the knob tightly
Afraid to fall into misery again
All because the mind is afraid
When the heart needs love.
