Bare

My heart is bare

You can view every scar and all the snares

I’m fully open and here for you to see

I long to be open with you ; carefree

I’m afraid you will run once you see

The darkness I ran from.

I feel I’m now tainted. I pray you’ll disagree

I want the freedom to love you freely

But is that possible after what was shown to me

Tell me all I need to hear and I’ll wish it was real

Touch me tenderly and I’ll say that’s all I need to feel

I’ll trust and I’ll love you

Believing that I know I will heal
