I'm a little broken,
But don't give up on me,
Trust that I'll get better,
Just wait and you will see,
Just give me a little time,
Some patience and apathy,
Promise you won't leave,
I'm trying hard to be free,
Free from my fears,
From memories of my past,
From feeling undeserving
And like happiness can't last,
Please don't leave me now,
I'm slowly giving in,
If you fight for me,
I'll try and let you in,
Right now I know I seem,
Like a flirtatious drunken fool,
But get to know me better,
And I will surprise you,
There's more to me than that,
I have hidden depths,
You just have to persevere,
Don't write me off just yet.
I find it hard to trust,
Because I've been hurt so many times before,
And even when I think I know,
I'm never really sure,
I may come across as confident,
But i'm really insecure,
And this may never change,
It's something you and I will have to endure,
But don't mess me around,
Don't prove that I was right,
Not to let down my guard,
And give in to the fight,
I'm trusting in you,
Against what I feel,
BecauseIi know the insecurities,
Aren't really real,
Bearing my heart,
Bearing my soul,
Giving into hope,
Letting doubt go,
Again I'm asking for patience ,
For you to trust in my heart,
I'm moving on from self confinement,
And letting my new life start.
