Things I Can't Do
A poem about the fight between your head and your heart.

I can't handle your judgement right now
I can't love cause I never learned how
And I can't hold you in my arms
Cause your words set off alarms
I can't tell you that I want you
Cause I'm too afraid to try
I can't tell you that I need you
I'm terrified you'll say goodbye
There are so many things I can't do
Don't even know the reasons why
You don't know all that I've been through
But at least you're one to try
To understand these walls
And roam these halls
To look me in the eyes
And see past my disguise
To hold my hand all night
Call me up right after a fight
And to say you're wrong
When I've been wrong all along
