When you look into my eyes,
Do you see me?
Or do you see the person you want me to be?
How can you say all the things you say,
When you have not seen inside?
If you only knew about why I cry.
I look into my heart,
And I recall
How time and time again fall
No one has ever caught me before.
I have begged, pleaded, and screamed.
Someone catching me seemed a dream.
But now you’re here, and I’m afraid.
For all the times I have trusted and lost,
My heart can no longer take the cost.
So please be patient.
For it is hard,
For me to forget all my scars.
