If you leave your heart open

You’ll never know what you will find

Another open door to enter

An opportunity to leave another closed door behind

I know I am not perfect

But I always strive to be

Please forgive me when I trespass

I may not always see

The mistakes that I make

Are ones that I must own

Trust must be earned

In the deeds that I have shown

I sense a reservation

For those with a broken heart

Maybe an elusive past

Not ready for a new start

I respect those in solitude

I respect those who share

A life without another

I think is harder to bare
