I'Ve Left My Heart Exposed

I’ve left my heart exposed To all your vulnerabilities For they provoked some truth in you That you often hid from me. If I could read your silences, I would assume you were afraid That i’d reveal your secrets That have kept you confined this way. I do not want you to think That you can trust only yourself For when I did so, I lost my ability To love my life and myself. You are much more beautiful When you babble about your day And when you tap me on the shoulder Just to hear what I have to say. I never get tired of you And if you think I do, please tell me. Please show me who you are and how you feel Because i’m in love with you and all of your stories.
