-Opening Up-
Opening up.
Only 2 words, and 4 syllables.
So easy to say, but hard to do.
It’s so much easier to tell you everything,
When I’m only telling you the good.
I can tell you what you want to hear;
And I can make you happy.
It makes it so much easier.
But I cannot always keep the hard feelings to myself.
You ask me to tell you everything,
But still I keep the fears back.
Until suddenly I stop holding it in;
The emotional floodwaters burst forth
And I break down.
You look at me with pity,
And I don’t want that.
But more than the pity,
You look at me with love.
You hold me gently in your arms,
Just as I have held you before
And secretly wished for someone to hold me.
But soon I finish,
And the circle begins again.
Opening up is not always easy.
But I’ll try.
