Afraid of Falling

I am afraid.
Afraid of you & me.
My heart is not the heart it used to be.
After all I've been through,
Fear has taken hold of my heart.
Running.
I just keep running.
Away from you & away from my mistakes.
I never meant to like you.
Don't think I change my mind often
Other guys can prove how loyal I am.
Forever & Always, it's how I end my letters.
Forever.
Always.
Love should be forever & always.
Life should be forever & always.
In time you'll see how honest I can be.
Never doubt me, time will prove all I say.
Give me time, time to figure things out.
Forgive my constant mistakes, my torn edges.
Other girls may be easier to fall for,
Reflections of themselves are picture perfect
You are the one to decide.
Only you can choose to take the easy route
Unless you prefer to stick with one who cares.
Images.
Other girls are simply images.
At the end of the day, they're nothing more & nothing less.
Minds almost empty, filled with useless nonesense.
Afraid.
Simply of becoming ther real selves.
Fear.
It controls so many of our daily routines.
Rage & passion come & go, with the faces of our times.
All I can offer is my heart & soul
I only have a fragile heart & a half empty soul
Don't cripple me any further
I want to trust you, I'm just afraid of falling.
