M's Poetry
Try Again
You say you want to love me
but I am too scared
I want to let you in my world
but my heart was gashed open
still I haven't given up
maybe you can be my repair
if I can just let go and try again
I want to be by your side
I want to be the hand you hold
I want to be the only love you know
so far my progress has been slow
pinch myself, damn myself each time an opportunity goes by
I just don't know why I freeze in place
like I want to watch my life as it passes
I swear that is not true
so I will just try again until I get through
I want to love again, I really do
I am tired of holding the thorns
I want to hold the roses...
