A Question From You

by Turnice

Are you emotionally naked?
Is the question you ask of me.
I sit back, 
And reflect on that question now.

Do I tend to let my emotions take control?
In certain cases, yes.
Such as
Matters of the heart.

When I open myself to another,
All of my emotions follow.
In return, I expect the same.
But that is rare.

I think back to the past…
How much of myself have I given?
How little I have received in return,
Which caused me to close the door,
To my heart.

But now I hear a knock…
A very faint, but steady one.
The door is slowly opening…

For it to open completely,
You must understand,
That I do not give my heart easily.

So, if you truly plan on opening that door,
Be sure
That yours is already open…
Ready to let me in.

So in answer to your question,
Are you emotionally naked?
I would have to say
That remains to be seen
I have emotional control of almost everything
Except… 

Now it’s up to you,
To find the key,
To my heart.
