My mother tells me

I am not like other young women

They run to embrace love

Yet I hold back

And flee from

This feeling of passion

For I have walls up

That are not easy to destroy

Or to peer inside

And I wonder when

A man will stay

To show me love

Is not something to fear

Or to hate

Love can be safe

To The People I’ve Had To Let Go Of...

I hope deep in your heart 

That you know 

I don’t do so because I stopped caring 

It’s the fact that I care too much 

For all of you

That I am hurting myself 

By holding on

So I let go 

Of you here 

Even though 

I wish I didn’t have to
