Vulnerable

2007 I reconsidered your proposal today
It's hard to break the bad news
When it's too hard to fake the words I should say
And, I wish I could have resisted you
But, you came crashing in like a hurricane
And, I couldn't do a thing
I took a picture today
Faces in mirrors
Speak so clearly in their own subtle ways
That it's hard denying you to my own face
And, it's even harder denying you my heart
When my heart's the only thing I need you to have
You taught me to protect myself
And to save my soul from unnecessary regret
And, all I can say as of yet
Is that not loving you has been my biggest
And, that loving you is the only thing I can't resist
I wish you could experience me
In the glory of my weakness
And, I wish I could be vulnerable enough
To reinvest myself in loving
I tore apart the picture
You know the one
Of you and I, I mentioned earlier
I just couldn't bear the thought
You know, that weight gets so heavy
That my mind can't focus on anything
Other than you're not here
And, God knows, that can't be healthy
I wish you could experience me
In the glory of my weakness
And, I wish I could be vulnerable enough
To reinvest myself in loving
And, I wish I could be vulnerable enough
To reinvest myself in anything at all
