Vulnerable Me

Vulnerable with indecision.

Vulnerable with low self-esteem

Oh vulnerable me!

A dream to fulfill and thorns in the path

I take them away but worry I might hurt them

I hurt, the thorns continue to grow, 

Entrenched on the path of my dream
Oh vulnerable me!

I have bigger goals, I plead

I get caught in today.

I wish to get through

It never wishes to leave me.

Oh vulnerable me!

It wants more,
demands more,
needs more,
I let it hang around
Yet another day
Oh vulnerable me!

My goal goes farther

My dream eludes me

Oh Vulnerable me!

Makes me live in indecision

and makes me its slave.

I wish to unshackle!

I wish to unshackle

from vulnerable me.
