Unconditional love is beautiful but loving without inhibitions is difficult.

You tell me that I’m perfect,

That you’ll never break my heart;

And though I know it isn’t worth it,

I let my defenses fall part;

Now what is to protect me,

When you rip my heart in two;

Cause even though I resisted,

I fell in love with you;

I tried to keep my distance,

From the charm you use so well;

And I know if you ever leave me,

I’ll be trapped in my own hell;

I’m waiting for the ball to drop,

For you to open your eyes;

To realize I’m not the one,

And break off all our ties;

I have a tiny piece of my heart,

Locked away without a key;

Just in case you ever decide,

To stop loving me for me.

    I’m not sure that can be achieved when one is falling in love…it’s pretty much all or nothing, the way our hearts work…

    It’s always a chance to take. We never know what the future holds.
