Scared Little Girl

I'm not yet ready
to experience the joy
emotions well guarded
by a scared little girl

Wanting the feeling
that love will bring
but fearing the flip side
already seen

Healing will come
I know with my mind
but still I'm not ready
'cause what lies behind

Yet moving forward
for love's open hand
a scared little girl
wounded by a man

I can feel you. But it wouldn't be real if I didn't express how there's men in this world not looking to hurt you.

Right?
