It's Complicated

He left, leaving a trail of destruction in his wake.

He broke my heart, so I built up my walls to stop it happening with anyone else. I don’t let anyone near enough to hurt me.

Now he’s back and he wants to talk, but I’m not sure that I’m strong enough to let him back into my life. That doesn’t stop me dreaming and I can only imagine what it might be like to be with him.

I don’t think I’m meant to get a happy ever after, but he seems determined to prove to me that we could. I’d love to trust him, but after all this time I think things are just too complicated. It feels like a huge step, and I don’t know if I'm brave enough.
