When Love Hides Within

When one allows emotions
To dwell deep within
They hide from the surface
They hide from you my friend.

Did you except them to run free 
And show you their marks
What if you mistreated them 
And left even deeper scares.

Noone knows better than I 
For I nursed them on days of no end
I had to promise to be real careful
If again they allowed me 
To ever love again.
