But memories dwell inside of me.
The past still haunts my dreams.
They will never go away it seems.

I suppose I have learned just to deal.
I've made my heart into steel.
A closed off heart can only mean pain.
Pushing away the people that have kept me sane.

Dropping the crutch is one thing to do.
Even saying I no longer need you.
But shutting you out of my life is wrong.
Especially since you've helped me for so long.

I don't think you have even seen.
Exactly what I really mean.
If I let you in this time you may hate me.
You think of me as the person I wish I could be.

You know things that have made me feel low.
Those are the things from a long time ago.
There are many things you dont' know.
Those are things I am not ready to show.

Experiences and memories have left me alone.
A glimpse to you I may have shown.
I wish I was secure enough to let you see.
But I always want you to think the best of me. [comments] => 3 [counter] => 207 [topic] => 2 [informant] => makx10 [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => LovePoetry )

Allow the people around you that love you to help you in your times of need. For there may come a time when you can return that favor. Having your love ones shoulder to cry on is an incredible feeling that should not be forgotten
