Your's To Hold

I finally figured it out.
I figured there’s no longer
Any point in hiding it any longer.
Do you really want to know the truth?
I know you’re reading this,
Hoping for just another glimpse
Into my mind.
Well, you want to know the truth?
I want to tell you how amazing you are.
I want to tell you just
How much you’re worth.
You want to know?
You’re beyond priceless.
I long to be able
To look you in the eye
And prove to you your worth.
Guys have walked all over you,
And you sit back,
And feel worthless,
That’s all you’ve ever known.
It breaks my heart
To know the pain you’ve felt.
To have your heart wrenched
So many times.
You are afraid to trust,
Because you don’t want to get burned.
Then you start to think you’re safe again,
And then you open up one more time,
Just to be broken again.
You’ve heard it a million times,
And you want to believe me,
I can see it in your eyes.
You want to believe that I’m different.
Here. Let me prove I am.
I’m not going to say I love you,
Because I don’t know you yet.
You haven’t opened up to me yet.
Take your time, I will never leave you.
Through every pain
Every trial,
Every sorrow,
Every joy,
Every high point,
I will be right next to you,
Holding your hand
Always reminding you that I am still here.
I want to love you,
You just have to trust me
And let me in.
You swore to yourself
You would never allow anyone else near you.
I’ve been in a similar position,
But I’ve never walked the same road as you.
Let me in to your mind,
Let me love you,
Let me hold you,
Let me help you through your pain.
I can’t remove the pain,
But I can help you through it.
You may not realize it,
But I need you,
I admire you,
You call me friend,
But you don’t fully trust me.
I long to have the opportunity
To prove to you
I want nothing for you but the absolute greatest.
I’m done, this is all I wanted,
Was to tell you
No matter what you hide in your past,
No matter what is there
That you don’t want me to see,
I see you no differently.
You are perfect in every way,
Your past doesn’t change that.
All it proves is how much further you have come.
Let me in, trust me,
Maybe I can finally be the one
You’ve been searching for,
That will be there with you forever.
I’m right here, waiting.
I’m not going anywhere.
I’ll wait till you are ready.
