♥  I'm not sure when it happened
     but at some point I must have let down my guard


And now here we are - my heart happy to be in your hands


All the hesitation that has haunted me before 
     is now lost in a sea of your warmth and tenderness


Every day, your kindness moves me to tears -
I've never had more faith in anything than I do in your love

♥
i.
I wish I were stronger
I wish I had more integrity,
          to truly give all that I expect from others,
          to stop being indebted to the past,
          to trust in the complete sense of the word 


ii.
Words are all I seem to have
At the end of the day, my hands are empty...
     just words echoing in my ears, floating around my mind, lingering on my tongue
Yet they are so valuable...
     each a promise, a hope, an illusion


iii.
there     is    no    way    you     will     survive     this     one     in     tact

♥ Just a novelty item - that's the best you can hope she'll ever be

a pretty smile dam holding back a flood of insecurity and a sharp tongue

always well composed, too afraid to let anyone see what's really inside

          (nothingbutahopelessmessofwastedpotentialandvanity)

clever enough to pique your interest, but not enough substance to hold it for long

You'll tell her you love her, but it's only in the same tepid manner you love something that is helpless and oh so naive 

a sweet face that strokes your ego, but questions your character at the same time

(youconvinceyourselfitismorethanjustlustthoughitisnot)

She can see "Insincerity" written across your face, but she'll still hold you with genuine warmth and think,
