When I Fall Apart

I come to you with my vulnerability and heart
Covered in imperfections, blemishes and scars.  
Darling, you are there to watch the bright stars  
With me, but when I want to be brave and dart  
  
Out into the middle of the rain will you join me?  
We will be wet and dripping with all of the tears  
Streaming down my face. Sometimes those fears  
Come in like the moonlight and the shadows I see  
   
Creeping In the middle of the night, but will you  
Keep them at bay for my sanity? Will you catch  
Me when I keep on falling? Like a gate’s latch  
You are my safety net, but is it ever enough to  
   
Keep me from running away or falling apart? I  
Have no one else to turn to when I cannot love  
Myself enough to be keeping doubts away. Of  
Another place and another time I would try my  
   
Best to love you back with all that you deserved.  
Honesty, loyalty and every inch of me. All from  
My mind, body and soul, but I am too numb  
To feel anything in this lifetime. I have reserved  
   
Too many spots in my heart for someone to take  
And take, giving nothing back in return. I am sick  
And tired of it all. So who is there for me? A brick  
And wall over my heart to keep away the ache  
   
People are afraid to keep a hold on. They are leaving  
Me to carry the hurt, but I someday I will stop grieving.
