Freeing an Insecure Heart

by Beautiful Forever   Mar 24, 2008


My inner security is shaking, out of control,
You're getting to close, please stand back,
Don't hold me, we're not meant to be whole,
I fear I'll die, if you decide to attack,

Why do you not listen, can you not hear?
I scream insecurity, but you don't see,
I'm falling apart, my eyes begin to tear,
But you just look right through me,

I'm not allowed such a beautiful gift,
There are too many duties I have to uphold,
I have to encourage justice and be swift,
Obtain the truth, punish, and scold,

You still don't understand, this is wrong,
My stomach is turning, I might be sick,
Don't you care who I am, or where I belong?
Or could this be some sort of trick?

My face is burning, can't you see its on fire?
You're killing me softly, with your passion,
You are someone I can truly admire,
With a lot of charm, and dangerous compassion,

My insides aren't shaking anymore,
You've opened my eyes, and my heart,
Now it's free to openly soar,
Like it should have been, from the start.

    I have been through this, maybe not your exact feelings but I have been scared and always feared getting close to someone for I would get my heart broken, but it did get better. Because everyone knows that your heart will get broken at least once probably more in life. Lovely poem 5/5
