The Chains I Locked Upon Myself
I cannot tell you
I cannot show you.
If you could go into my mind,
You might understand.
If this was the past
I would be head over heels.
I have learned not to fall so easily
To reject emotions,
To deny love.
It is hard for me to feel.
To give my emotions to you,
I want to give you my heart
As easily as you do.
Yet I am afraid to lose you
I fear that I am not right,
That I cannot love.
You are my only hope
The test I must conquer.
Yet I cannot force myself
I cannot make myself love you
It is not you
You could be anyone
You could be perfect
I still would not feel.
You make me want to change
To be different, then what I told myself to be
Can you change me?
Can you break my chains, I locked upon myself.
