And I will be okay

I’ll hold you at a distance
If only to make you see
Just how much I find it hard
To really show you the real me
I wanted you to notice
And accept my better traits
Tonight I want to admit to you
So I can start over, straight
I’m sorry that I feel this way
I feel like giving in
I hope one day you’ll understand
That I feel like I’m dying within
I wanted you to know
How hard it is to be this way
To hate my own reflection
But to be faced with it everyday
I know you truly love me
I wish that I could too
So that maybe I could be okay
And start this over, anew
You promised you’d be here for me
But I was never here for myself
Torturing myself mentally
And destroying my own health
I know it must be sick to see
My arm of precise little scars
That’s why I hold you at arms length
You can’t see them from afar
I want you to understand
Why I hurt myself this way
Trying so hard to believe in myself
And trying to finally be okay
There is so much about me
I never would want you to know
But still I need you to help me
So that one day I won’t be so low
I know that I am hurting you
I want you here to stay
I need you so much it scares me
One day I’ll finally be okay
