If I bare my soul - She Says

She says...

If I bare my soul to you

Would you still find me kind?

The bitter truths I say

The tears on a rainy day

Will you still hold my hand and make me stay?

Or would you want to walk away?

If I bare my soul to you

Will you promise not to make my cry?

For the lessons I have learnt

Make it harder for me to try

So many possibilities that the mind never stops

I reassure myself; still the doubt seems to pop

If I bare my soul to you

Will U still be you?

And will I still be me?

Will we go down once again or set each other free?

One day, when your moonlit dreams

Meet my sunshine eyes

When there will no more ‘what ifs’

And no more ‘whys’

When we leave behind the swarm

I will weep in your arms

Then gently you may whisper a thing or two,

And I will bare my soul to you

And I will bare my soul to you!!

If I bare my soul - He Says

He says -

If I bare my soul to you
Will you still find it beautiful?
For there are scars
Scars that didn't kill me
But made me strong
Scars that remind me
Of my missteps, of my wrongs

If I bare my soul to you
Will you still care?
For there are emotions
That are related to you
Which might make you uncomfortable
Emotions so strong and fickle
That make me so unstable

If I bare my soul to you
You'll still be around
This I know with all my heart
But things won't be the same
And this I know from start
So I suppress like you do
And one day we'll open up,
Talk about it all & start it new
