I want to know;

What you love,
or not so much;
and your fears,
as well as dreams.

How you love;
with your body,
and your heart,
synchronized.

Your inner you;
the one no one
else can see.
Please show me.

I don't need your love
although it would be nice. Your
smile is enough

You're home now;
I shouldn't be afraid but I am.
I'm not alone now;
That should be relieving,
but I can't calm the nerves
still giving me anxiety.
And I can't end the war
continuing inside of me.
All I want is to relax
just go back to how it used to be
but everything keeps changing
my thoughts won't set me free.

Sometimes I think that I can't take it anymore
It being life of course.
Sometimes I think I'll break down
but only on the inside.
Sometimes I think I'm pathetic
because others have it worse.
Sometimes I think that I am invincible;
But then I realize that I am only human.

That I am only a nucleus
surrounded by the positives and negatives.
That I am only powered by chemical reactions
which I have been told can be fixed.
That I am only one on this planet
graced with a life lived by no other.
But then I realize that I am only human;
I am only a passionately destructive human.

**** anxiety,
postponing my sleep and dreams.
Take me away now.
Shannon Sep 2012
I want love,
but I don't;
And I'm scared,
so I won't.
drop my guard,
until you do;
Let me in.
I wanna know the real you.
