Opened heart, once again
But this time, no broken heart to mend
Aiming to be happy
But keeping my guard up to protect me

I hope this is not another waste of my trust or another game for my mind
Cause at the end of each day, I don't want to feel as if I wasted my time

Catching feelings? maybe...
Don't want to put myself in the position though
Cause I'm tired of trusting and ending up hurting
Holding back is always an option, often used for protecting my heart and restricting how far I 
will go

Praying that this is not an 'ima make her fall for me then get rid of her' game
If so,
Just let me know
If not, it's just more fuel to the flames
