You and Only You

There's so much love flowing through my veins
For you and only you

This fierce beating in my heart,
Is for you and only you

You make my life complete
You touch me to my soul

But so many things have happened
Far beyond my control

I want to love whole heartedly
I want to trust completely
But you have caused such pain

I'm scared to open up again
And fear is all to blame

You have to prove your love to me
You have to give it all

ALL your heart
ALL your mind
Especially ALL your soul

For us to heal and be complete
These are all things you must do
For only YOU can make me open up again
YOU and ONLY you.

    this beautiful poem inspired me to finally get out my pain, and write a poem that has been incubating and growing in me for several days (allpoetry.com/Poem/1538021), thank you!

    this is so beautiful & it touches me very deeply right now. i don't know waht else to say; i was drawn to click it and now i see why. i love the twist: it seems like it will just be a garden-variety love poem, then you turn it around, and it becomes one of pain, and then hope and invitation to heal.

    Excellent write!

    "You and only you..." I love how you used this line over and over, it really got your point across. This is something that everyone can relate to and I hope that you can over come it. Writing really helps me and I hope that it has helped you. Keep up the good work and remember time is the healer of all wounds.

    Great job.

    Really like this. All of us have been hurt at one time or another. Trust is something that takes time to rebuild. Keep writing.
