Time for Another Try

I was scared,
of facing reality again,
and allowing my heart,
to go insane.

So I pretended,
to not know what love was,
because of my past,
and the damage it caused.

And I hated the way,
I couldn't give me heart out,
because I was scarred for life,
and hurt without a doubt.

I didn't trust love,
didn't give it a chance,
it hurt too much,
ever since last years romance.

So I'm giving it another try,
with someone who I trust,
who hopefully like me,
prefers love over lust.

He says he went through the same,
and his heart was also broken,
and says I can always trust him,
to not leave words unspoken.

Since we are both just looking,
for a person to care,
to be able to cuddle with,
and be able to share,

Once again,
I'm giving love another try,
hopefully it will be a long time,
until we say our good-byes.
