What do you do when love is out there but your afraid to find it
Everyday the opportunites are endless
There are opportunities for both purly physical and deeply emotional
relationships
I however am now terrified of both
What happens if i open up again
What happens if i get stuck there again
Pain, i cannot handle the pain again
When i was young i never let another person really in
I never felt comfortable in another person
Although they foolishly felt it in me
My only expierence in love has turned into my biggest failure
Now i know that it is time
It is way past time
To actually live life instead of being a constant observer
i dont want to wreck my future running from my past
I've been trying not to make foolish mistakes
Mistakes that everyone must make to grow
Somehow i still believe that i can grow without expierencing the diversities of life
and love
I try to believe that life will happen for me but if there is a path,
If there is always a reason than i must wonder,
What have the last 2 years been
Did i come here to finally open up
To fall in love and join the human race
What have i accomplished?
A trail of broken hearts follow me everywhere
And at the very end is my own
No longer bleeding but still aching
If i could move on maybe my smiles wouldnt have to be fake
There is nothing more painfuly to me than a broken heart,
Followed by dozens of daily compliments
Followed by false smiles and heldin tears
