Scars

The scariest is the past.

And the future

The known and the unknown

We fear the future because of the past

But can our past really change our future

 

I look at you

And I know your past

And you know mine

You speak words of the future

But can I trust them?

 

My mind says it’s okay

But my heart is leery

It was hurt before

Is it worth the risk?

Will you be the same?

 

I trust you in my mind

But my heart is scared

The scars still remain

I want you to heal them

But I don’t know if you can

 

I want our future

It’s a risk worth taking

Even if I fall

I have faith you’ll catch me

Because I’m falling for you

This is quite relatable, and the way you wrote it only makes it more so. It was almost as if I could hear the thoughts in your head as you thought them. The inner struggle was very well portrayed. Well done.

It is a very simple piece. Even though it is simple, however, it is very easy to relate to, and it makes you think of your own past and your own future, and your own experiences being hurt and trying again. I somehow feel that it lacks SOMETHING but I have no idea what it is. However, all in all, I think that it is a wonderful write, and I very much enjoyed reading through it. =]
