I'm not so scared anymore
That is, I'm not
Scared of love
Of friendship, of loyalty, and of love

I've been wary for a long time now
Of love and of people
I got hurt once
Really bad
My heart didn't heal
And then I got hurt again
While trying to ignore my broken heart
It broke me
I didn't think my heart
was going to heal
Ever

For the longest while
I didn't think myself
capable of love anymore
Which is why
I was so surprised
To realize that
I'm not so scared to love anymore
I don't think I'm incapable of love
I don't think I'm incapable of
receiving love either

I've found ways to love again
It took awhile
Loving still very hard some days
But I know it exists within me
I know now I can love still
Maybe not as easily as I could
Before my heart was wounded
But I can still love and
Perhaps the effort
I must put into loving
Makes love all the more sweet
