I Can't Do This

I feel so broken
My heart feels shattered
I'm afraid of getting hurt
I'm sorry I'm so confused
I can't do this

I know I love you
I don't know what to do
I'm just so scared
I'm already broken
I can't do this

I spill my feelings out with these words
But as I do, tears are falling
I'm just beginning to see the world
I don't think I'm ready
I can't do this

My heart is bleeding words
Words I just can't seem to say
I'm scared and I'm hurt
My pain just won't subside
I can't do this

My feelings for you are strong
But I'm afraid of the results
I feel you deserve better than me
I'm just traumatized
I can't do this

I feel vulnerable
Thoughts swirl in my head
"Do I deserve you?"
I don't think so
I can't do this

Tears are rolling down my face
My wall i worked so hard to build; breaks
The mask I wear; it fades
And my love for you is revealed
I can't do this

I just don't want to get hurt again
I don't want to break
I want to love you
And I need you to see
I just can't do this

And I'm sorry....
