Please love me the way I am
With all my human failings
The imperfect being that I am
I give you my heart in all honesty
All fear and caution cast aside
I bear the scars of all the hurt
And all the pain that went before
But what I couldn’t say before
I am telling you now:
I want to say I love you
But I just can’t find the words
I want you to know I care
But the words don’t come out right
All that is deep within
That is why I think of you
When the sun goes down
And at night when I can’t sleep
When the gentle breeze blows
And when the palms sway
I think of you always
With each passing moment everyday
I think of you when the sun rises
At the start of each brand new day
With each tear I cried I whispered your name
I wanted every footstep to be yours
Every knock to be yours
So if I don’t say what you want to hear
Please know that I’ve given you my heart
That is all that matters
I have hurt enough
I have cried enough
Dry my tears and heal my heart
It is broken and in tatters
Take me in your arms
And tell me everything will be okay
