You study me, like you're seeing me for the first time
So young and delicate, it would be so simple to hurt me
But my mind's so cynical, you forget the girl in me
You concentrate on my hostile eyes
Trying to grasp the insecurity inside
As if you're saying,
'Let me steal away your pain;
Let me protect you and you'll never feel lost again.'
But you know it's wrong
For you to look at me that way
Like you want to hold my hand in yours forever
To stay with me until I fall asleep so that I won't be afraid
To catch me when I fall so hard my heart shatters
But so much of me is still a child
I'm terrified of love
And you're smothering me
Very nicely written I also can some how take that which you have written and apply it to my own life sittuation.Thank you for sharing.
