Acceptance

I realize that I love you,
I know that this is true.
But can't you see that I am scared?
Can't you see it’s new?

You are the first since Him,
The first one to come along.
It’s just so hard for me to accept
That you and I belong.

But I can't seem to let you see me
The way that others do.
I don’t want to be hurt again-
Especially by you

You smile when you see me,
And as I said before-
This is the first since Him,
And I just don't know if I want more.

But please don't give me up so soon,
Don't say goodbye just yet.
Because I know I can be myself-
It's just the fact that...

I'm hurt,
I'm broken,
I'm no longer new.
And all I want is to be loved
By the one and only you.
