Letting Go

letting my wall come down

Letting go

Its hard for me to let anyone in –
But yet, here in front of me you stand.
I want you in my life,
To give us a try,
But the pains of my insecurities always arise.

There’s so much I want you to know –
So much I want to share.
But I cannot bring myself to do it,
It’s an indescribable fear.

It comes from deep within -
Something I cannot control.
I’ve built a wall up around me
Sturdy enough so that it won’t fall.

But I’m tired of being lonely -
Of falling asleep by myself every night.
I miss having strong arms to hold and
Keep me warm when it’s cold outside.

It’s taken me years to get to this point -
Now I’m ready to let go.
My inhabitations don’t stand in my way anymore,
I’m complete but lets take it nice and slow.
