Crush

Curiosity led me in your direction

What made me stay? Your affections.

Never breaking my spirit, only silencing my voice.

Getting rid of the walls around my heart, losing my poise.

What do I do with these long lost emotions?

I've always had a trust problem, a problem with devotions.

I promise to try my best to be there for you.

But I can't guarantee anything permanent, only true.

We can attempt at this if you so decide.

You'll see me in a different light, an entirely different side.

Teach me to trust again, and I'll be here as long as you want me.

Teach me to love again, and I'll thank the fact that you set me free.
