There's a fear and a hunger
That little girl inside of me
has a need to be loved
She wants to trust
but fear is always
in the back of her mind
because of what was
and what she has always known
She hungers for good touch
and nurturing to quiet her fears
She wants so bad to
just be held and comforted
but she is afraid to ask
for what she wants
and what she needs
She is scared inside
to let go and to take down
all the walls that have
protected her for so long
She's afraid to be hurt again
She's afraid that
she'll be left behind again
She's afraid to want and need
She afraid to let go
so she holds on tightly
to the only thing she knows
Herself.
She can depend on herself
She can try to be strong
like she had to
for so many years
She can stay alone
inside of herself
because when she is alone
nobody can come in
to hurt her again
She lonely though
and she cries
for what she doesnt have
and she yearns to have
her needs and wants met
She's afraid
if she asks
that she will be rejected
and that she will feel
like she doesnt even
matter at all...
