Scared

LIke a baby taking it's first step
I'm afraid of to open up because I'm afraid of getting hurt 
Is it my fault for being protecetive of my feelings
Or should I just open up to everyone
And allow my heart to take the pain and abuse 
For loving someone who doesn't care much about me
Maybe it's me
Maybe I don't know how to love 
Maybe I'm just scared
Who knows 
But I do know
I'm not scared to find that person
Who's willing to teach me how to love
And then maybe I won't be scared to love them back
