how can i tell you that i'm still broken?
that i'm not put back together yet?
how can i say that i'm hurting
when there's nothing there to even hurt me?
how can i let you in
when i'm afraid you won't like what i have to give?
how can i say that i'm a raging ocean
i do not want you to drown in?
how do i say that all i will ever be is a mess?
and that's not something i want you to witness.
how do i say that i'm scared?
