My Rocky Road

I’m back on this rocky road
And its been such a long drive
Everything seems to change
And I’ve only lost myself

On the road, I’ve found life
A lot of hope, love, and faith
But a lot of things are missing
And that’s where the bumps in the road appear

I protect my heart with a metal wall
And if your strong enough
You will be able to find your way around
And I’ll be standing there with a smile

I am very delicate like a feather
You have to handle me with care
If you drop me, I will fall to the empty ground
With nothing to catch or save me..

It takes a lot for me to trust
But that doesn’t mean to give up
Just make me believe you won’t hurt me
And I will open every bit of me to you

It doesn’t take a lot for me to love
I love the smallest thing on earth
If it were a lady bug to a human being
I’d fight for its life

Sometimes I think I should just start over
Everything that I've dreamed of
Has become so much harder than I realized
And every step I take feels like my feet are dragging..

Don’t ask me what’s at the end of the road
Either it be a dead end or a path to happiness
I do know everyone that loves me will be there
And that’s all what truly matters in life

This was a good honest write, it seemed like a reflection as well as an instructional piece for you as well as for somebody else. Over all though good write.

I love the vulnerability of your writing. Challenging this person to love you while confessing that your love isn't a prize unearned. Good write!

You express your feelings so great here and you let, what I think a lot of people feel, you let them know that they are not alone. You are really good writer!

This is another Fine example of your Wonderful ability to express your feelings. I believe that many readers will be able to relate to this, as I myself can. Just remember, no garden comes to fruition without being tended to. Excellent!
