Holding Back

Folder: 
really old stuff

It’s hard to hold another heart

When I can barely grasp mine

Maybe it’s the devil pulling me back

And everything will be fine



I’m scared of hurting you

Not of you hurting me

I’d die if I broke your heart

If guilt may it be



There are many corners of my heart

That have yet to be touched

But I always leave the doors locked

And the key in my hand I clutch



Someone told me to love you

While another said you lie

I don’t know who to trust

All I can do is try



I’m scared of missing out

Because of my ignorant fear

But maybe I’m doing the right thing

By backing up when you come near



Hearts are only as good

As their weakest link

So deep down inside

We’re all on the brink
