Let Down Your Guard

The art of being a woman
The ability to make a man believe he can dominate
A slight thought of commitment
That we've yet to consummate
As we go through life we see
there is so much that we don't understand
How a girl can catch such strong feelings
For the LEAST expecting man
A plethora of heartbreak
Causing neglect & pain
What could usually be repressed
Can no longer be contained
I've been picking up the pieces
Of someone else's mess
I've come to the conclusion
That your different from the rest
I can usually hide it
But with u its just so hard
We have potential i can feel it
Baby just let down your guard
I know that you've been hurt
I feel your pain its true
But baby give us one shot
& i promise i won't hurt you
I'm no usually the one
To catch feelings sit & wait
But something about you
Puts me in a kind of vulnerable state
This is somewhat hard for me
Cause I'm not usually the one
TO sit & twiddle my thumbs
waiting on anyone
I don't usually say this
& I've played my last card
I could make it worth your while
If u just let down your guard
