PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Why does it make me nervous

to open up and give you my trust?

Your beauty draws me near,

yet somehow I fear

That I cannot measure up.

I'm like a scared pup,

shivering in your presence.

And I can make no sense

of how you make me feel.

Hoping something about me dost appeal

to that beautiful, tender heart

that beats within your chest.

Oh, I'd be the most blessed

of all God's creatures

if, of something long lasting, this is the start.

The arms I want to be in are yours.

So, why does it make me nervous

to open up and give you my trust?
