Weakness

Alone I battle the world. Guarded by a armor I made myself. I have fallen many times. But I`ll never give up. Stop stripping my of my armor. You are making me weak. Don`t let me show you that I have a heart or that I get nervous when you speak. I won`t admit that I need someone to tell me I`ll be alright. I won`t admit I need someone to keep me warm at night. I am not suppose to let you past my brick wall. But your eyes seem to know it all. You are too good for me. Please go away. I`m not ready now and I won`t be any day. All you want is love, the real kind. Not my body, but my soul. Leave me now before I fall. Don`t hold me in your arms. Set me free to face the world. Don`t even speak because I know what you`ll say. You`ll respect me, your say everything so perfectly and I will always want to stay. Leave me now. Not another second has to pass. Your making me weak. And weakness never lasts.
