What would it take....

Tame the beast that resides

Cool this fire that rages inside

Quiet my tortured mind

Loving with arms wide open

Making memories unspoken

Could you fix this empty space?

This hole in my heart, that broke place?

Or would you run away in fear and disgust

When you find out I am nothing but rust?

Would you be like all the rest?

Love only parts of me and throw out the best?

What would it take

To prove you mean what you say

and say what you mean?

What would it take?
