Running

Long ago I  loved someone
Who tore my heart to pieces
I kept those pieces locked away
And hid the key from sight

A while ago you found the key
Which I had horded for so long
Then I went and ruined things
And you left me all alone

I'm sorry for the  things I said
And the attitude I had
But this love for you has scared me
So I turned from you and ran

I promise not to run anymore
If you will take me back again
You don't have to repeat to me
This love I feel for you

Take all the time you think you need
To reflect on what I've said
The love I feel will help bide the time
As I longingly await your return
