DONT BE FOOLED BY ME
I want you to know how important you are to me,
how you can be the creator of the person
that is in me if you choose to.
You alone can break down the wall behind
which I tremble.
You alone can see behind my mask.
You alone can release me
from my shadow world of panic
and uncertainty and loneliness.
So please dont pass me by.
I know it will not be easy for you.
A conviction of worthlessness
build strong walls.
And the nearer that you approach me,
the blinder I may strike back.
You see, I am fighting
against the very thing I need the most.
But I am told that love is stronger than walls,
and in this, lies my only hope.
So beat down those walls
with your firm but gentle hands,
for the child in me is very sensitive
and cant grow behind walls.
So dont give up.
I need you.
