I am afraid of giving you my heart. If there is one thing I will detest myself for being, it is vulnerable. I can't stand giving someone the power to destroy me. I will avoid that at all costs, which is maybe why I can't love you. I don't trust you. I love you, but I can't trust you with something as fragile and dangerous as my heart. And the sad thing is, I don't think I ever will. Your heart is wild and open and is home to many people. Mine is just for you. And if one day you leave, then it will be a big hole of nothingness. Empty. And I can't let that happen to myself.
