Words tumble out,
a verbal rockslide
Each one carrying a bit of my soul
They hang there, suspended in silence
Will you pick them up,
or simply let them go?
Emptied now, of my many expressions
Each of them given freely
I am vulnerable
I am naked before you
How long will you let me wonder?
One step closer, I venture
My heart practically moves for me
Filled again with love,
I feel I could burst
But arms reach out to keep me at length.
Will there ever be one person
Who accepts all I have to give?
Will they encourage my emotions?
Will they pull me close instead?
And if this person should exist,
Will they return to me in kind?
Will they entrust me with a heart and soul,
And allow themselves to be cherished?
