Unravelled

I'm afraid
If I let myself
Love you
It would rip me apart
And unravel my nerves
Twisting me into
A dark, stained shadow

I'm afraid of you
Stealing
The light I have found

Please,
Please
Don't capture my heart
Please
Don't make me fall apart.

  3. I have
    Lived
    in fear
    Mostly
    and
    Found certainty, but
    No Love.

    Now I am
    Old
    and only
    Loved
    and
    Been Loved
    in limited
    Ways

    This is a
    Definition of
    Tragic.

    To be
    Open
    Is to be
    Vulnerable
    and it can
    Hurt

    To be
    Closed
    Is to be
    Certain, but
    About
    Nothing

    in limited
    Ways
