Si me quieres conocer

No pido disculpas
Por escribir
Lo que siento
Lo que llevo adentro
Lo que vivo
 
Entiendo
Si no lo puedas leer
Si te cae muy fuerte
Si te cae muy triste
Si te cae muy feo
 
Podía pintarlo
Todo bonito
Si yo quería
Pero
Si es difícil leerlo
Es difícil vivirlo
 
Si me quieres conocer
Aquí estaré
En estas paginas
Hasta lo más feo de mi

(2015)

Desperate for his attention Knowing it will drive him away Jealous of a game - how lame Choking self-esteem where I lay Desperate for his affection
