“Heal”

What is it that you fear my Love

Is it me

Or is it the fear of love itself

Are you afraid of intimacy?

Or is it something far deeper

Does it stem from your childhood?

If so

Who hurt you?

Who cut you so deep?

Lay in my arms

Let me hold you

You are safe here

Tell me all about it

I’m listening

Yet you won’t open up fully

Love heals

My love heals

Yet my love can’t heal you

The way you need it to

Why

Why are you so secretive?

Why must you lie

So many secrets

So many lies

Mixed with the refusal to let me in completely

Don’t be scared

I told you I won’t hurt you

The way that you hurt me

But you’ll never know at this rate

For I could only plant those seeds

Of love in you

In hopes a tree will grow

In time you’ll see

What love can be

But by then maybe I’ll have already been long gone

Yet even from a distance

Still loving you

Still Praying for you

Hoping that you heal
