So Scared of Being Close

So Scared of Being Close

So scared of being close,

If I told you my every secret,

Wouldn't that leave me naked,

For you to see,

Every emotional scar,

Each unforgivable flaw,

My imperfect heart?

So scared of being close,

If I let you kiss me,

It would leave me wanting,

More than I can handle,

And you would know,

That I'm broken and made of,

Pieces pretending to be whole,

So scared of being close,

If you start to depend on me,

I would go further away,

Because I just can't let you love me,

Until I can love you back,

Until I'm not,

So scared of being close …
