New Leaf

At the moment of our meeting
My soul unlocked for you
I was weary of love
There are scars all over me
Heart and soul
Left from lovers who
Have come and gone
With little regard for me
Against my better judgement
I opened my ribs
And let you settle in
The space made just for you
It did not hurt like all the others
A perfect puzzle piece
That my soul had been missing
The only way I can let you go now
Is if you break me open
And spill my insides
The contents of my heart
Lying scattered and broken

Please don't break me
Despite my solid exterior
I am as fragile as a new leaf

Tiny Mind

It is in those moments
That space in time
When I truly open my eyes
That I see all the things
I think I know are just
Simply the surface

I know so little
And I am so small
The universe and time
Confound my little mind

In the end all I need to know
Is You love me
Inspite of my arrogance
My pride, stumbling, and
Unfounded belief
That I truly know it all

You who created all
You who knows all
Love me. Us. Your creation.
