Can You Love Me?

Can you love me?
Is it even possible to love someone like me?
Someone so incomplete.
So reckless. Unstable. Temperamental.

I crave to be touched, held and wanted.
Yet, at the same time, I shy away from it.
The gentle touch confuses me.
Should I let you in? Will you walk away?
How long can these stone walls protect me?

Each passing day, they crack and wither.
When will they break?
When will they fall down completely and expose me?
Is it possible for you to love me?

Like I love you.
