Insecurities have always kept me at bay,
from giving my whole heart away.
Feared it would be broken again,
so I'd cradle it from the rain.

Nurturing this fragile part of me,
making promises that next time I won't be.
Open wide to hurt and heartbreak,
or make it easy my heart to take.

Cradling the part of me that's been through the wars,
has aided me to open new doors.
Doors I never knew didn't need a key,
now open right before me.

Allowing me to wander where my heart feared to call,
letting me know that it's okay to fall.
The world won't end if I fall too hard,
so I agree to let down my guard.

Inviting love to call me day or night,
vowing that no more will I put up a fight.
My true emotions when the right one comes along,
for I know that I can be strong.

To let myself feel all that is good,
capture this warm feeling like I never could.
But it's okay to reach out for love that is pure,
as every day I learn to be A LITTLE LESS INSECURE!!
