Promise to Forgive

:So I definitely wrote this as lyrics, not a poem:

I've always been in love affairs
That were picture-in-picture
So forgive me if being on the big screen is something new
But I promise I'll fill the screen with love songs and melodies
That will take your breath away
I promise you today...

You won't regret the ticket it took to hold me close to you
And I'll cover your heart if only for a moment or two
But forgive me if I'm clumsy or say the wrong things
Cause the right ones always got me hurt,
so I'm used to holding in feelings
But I'm tired of being guarded
So I'm just gonna leap
No matter how steep, the fall...

I've always been the one to kiss,
the one to touch, to hold, to love the most
I've never had a love returned,
and that's what has hurt me the most
I've been waiting for a love to love me unconditionally
I have so much love to give
That's part of what makes me, me

So forgive me if I clothe myself in false security
And if I don't know how to reach for your hand
I hope you'll understand
That I'm scared you'll burn me
And I already have so many scars
I'm trying to hide

But I promise you the truth to every question that you ask me
And I swear to you that I'll never wear my mask again
I'm so used to being everyone elses version of me
But you pull out someone that I used to be
I'm scared you won't like what you see
The real me

Forgive me for the worries that dance inside of my head
For the imperfections or anything that
Might make you see red
And I hope you'll learn to love me when blue skies turn gray
And learn to love me more with each passing day
Cause I promise I will too
Hear the truth in what I say

And forgive me for everything I'm not
But I'll promise you everything that I am
I just hope you understand
