Cuts decorate my palms
Scabs peel off my wrists
Tears fall from my eyes
It's the same old song
I'm back to as I used to be.
The only difference is your love
Though the pain remains the same
My heart still has not healed.
Will you look at me differently?
How could you love me the same ?
I don't want to keep lying
Lying… to the one that holds my heart.
I want you to love me
For whom I am ... though
Some things are better left unsaid…
Some cuts are better hidden
…To avoid suspicion of others.
Some scabs must be left alone
…In order to fully heal.
Some tears must be wiped away
…To avoid sympathy and questioning.
It's the same old song…
It won't stop playing.
We've said "I love you" to one another...

And I know in my heart that it is true. I love him, and he loves me. We were both scared about saying it, due to the fact that we're still in high school... But for right now, for the present--I love him, and he loves me.

There's nothing more I could want at the moment...

But the ghosts of my past still haunt me. He continues to talk about total honesty, how he is forever grateful that we are completely honest to one another--that he loves and respects for me it.

Well... the ghosts of my past haven't been revealed to him yet. What if this changes his view of me? ...I do not want him to fall for me any further whilst not knowing a part of me.

I don't know what to do... I honestly love him, and each day it kills me that he doesn't know me fully.
