I’ve Learned; Fear of Love
“Reality of Love” written 2008 – this is a poem concerning how we put high expectations on love, but some can’t love themselves enough to let others completely into their soul and mind out of FEAR.
Was it all an act?
I have to ask
Because I didn’t think so at first
But now I’m convinced
You knew the words
To get your way
Only because you knew
I would feel bad the next day
Do you have a conscious?
Or even a clue?
What it takes to love someone?
It takes openness
A willingness to give an inch
Overall, it takes strength
You’re weak at the knees
And it shows
You’re weak deep in your core
And it hurts, doesn’t it?
Then why? Why would you let down
The only one who knows?
