"Scared to love"

Scared to fall 

Scared to take risks 

Scared of risking it all

Knowing I always give it my all,

Knowing I’ll lose everything and more 

Chasing a love that was never meant to be 

I’ll never know if it was meant for me if I never try and see 


Scared to love

People scare me 

Drowning in a sea of thoughts,

People be looking fishy 


A battle of my thoughts

Stuck in my head 

It’s time I take a step outside

Take a breather

Take a break

Clear my mind


Enough of thinking my room was meant to be a place for me to stay 

The same room I been living in my whole life 

The same room I locked myself in 

The same room with all the could of’s and never did’s 


Have to let go of who I thought I needed to be 

I know I lost opportunities to perfect moments

Kept chasing perfection 

Perfectionism never escapes me

Suffocated me for so long

It’s time I learn to enjoy the journey

Brought out the worse to accept the best 

Never would want it differently 


Every story has two sides if you see it clearly

Broken lens and broken people 

Never match up perfectly 

Conflict and arguments 

Lead to bonding and understanding 


Scared to love

People scare me 

Cold cold world

Not sure where I can find someone who can handle the worse of me 

Never confident in taking care of someone else

All I ever did was let myself down 

Not sure of myself for so long

Struggled to see the key to me 


Self-love 

I’m working on it 

A work in progress 

I never understood 

Scared to love

Is love something I’ll ever understand? 


Scared to love

But I know will hold her dearly

Scared of love

I am never sure when I’ll be ready 

Scared to love 

Have to learn how to risk it all 

Take a chance

Build some memories
