I wish I could just accept you.
I realize who you are,
I know you’re beautiful,
Outside, and inside too.

But, you see,
I have a problem.
I built these walls,
So no one could ever reach me.

This wall that you’ve found,
It’s been around for awhile,
No one’s ever tried to break it,
Or even walk around.

Maybe, if you try hard,
You could reach me.
I could show you who I am,
My true self I’d no longer have to guard.

I’m sorry I don’t speak,
When lots of people are around,
For, I have many thoughts,
I’ve felt very empty this week.

I love you more than you know,
Just, please,
Will you realize how hard it is for me?
Love is hard to show.
