I Am Damaged

I am not ready.
       For a relationship.
       Too damaged.
       To have any.
       I know now.
       It will take a while,
       To overcome my fears.
        I found solitude.
        I could,
        Be myself.
        Without worrying.
        Be perfect,
        Or be reject.
        I found comfort,
        In my soul.
        That one day,
        I will be whole.
        Ready to try again,
        Embracing a friend.

I know the feeling. Love comes when you least expect it...perhaps, have stopped looking. It is the breathing organ of the Heart -- Blessings my friend!
