I understand
I do
I know
how important this is to you
I am trying the best I can
But I...
can't...
remember my password
There you are
Surrendering access to me
And I know you must feel awkward
We're getting to know each other
And I sit here...
clammed up
Like an introvert
But I...
Can't...
Escape this
In this age of technology
With firewalls and cryptology
so accustomed to these cages
That I hide the keys
And sit here behind bars
Safe from harm
Covering up my scars
because I...
Refuse...
To be hurt again
I want to believe you
I do
These cold, mildewed walls
Provide security
The need for self preservation
Won't allow anyone the liberty
Of coming and going as they please
So please,
Be at ease
Knowing that in here...
I'm at peace
And I...
Am...
Ok with being alone
