If anyone likes these lyrics and would like to put them to music, I would be very happy. Please, feel free to alter the words any way you like…
I will not hurt you again (needs music)
Do not shout at me,
please, do not doubt on me,
unsure what I want,
I never knew what I should do,
all the time I was losing you…
For all, it’s me to blame,
as I chased away the tame,
always falling for the wild,
always the wrong ones by my side…
(Chorus)
Tell me what is on your mind,
help me to find
all the best inside of me…
only you know me,
please, just show me
the best inside of me…
and I won’t hurt you again…
I will never hurt you again…
I will not forget
things I did, they´re bad…
won’t change for the good
if you do not help me to free
the best… the best inside of me…
Please, kiss me as you can,
I need love, I need a hand,
hold me close, please, hold me tight,,
or I won´t make it through this night…
(Chorus)
Tell me what is on your mind,
help me to find
all the best inside of me…
only you know me,
please, just show me
the best inside of me…
and I won’t hurt you again…
I will never hurt you again…

Follow up comment: Just reread your guidelines. Excellent! Going to figure out how to set up the collab in a few: Looks pretty simple. Running an errand first then will get to it. Probably an hour or so :-)

These words catch the eye and heart. Not sure what the etiquette is but I rattled off a quasi folk-country lo-fi take on this. Am usually struggling to come up with some original chord progression or unexpected notes, but the guitar vocals track I did here lapsed right into the familiar groove lines of ballad tradition. Doesn't break any new ground...sorry! But it does come from the heart :-) --> If I broke etiquette by randomly cutting a take and you do not approve, I shall delete and it will never appear or go anywhere but my phone's audio folder then deletion to the recycle bin, or whatever the phone equivalent of that is :-)
All that being said, the sentiment in this poem is timeless:
I've strayed, I know it. I'm sorry. Let me know what is in your heart so I can be a better person and never hurt you again. Pretty cool!

This sounds like person involved in a very problematic relationship. I feel like the narrator needs a good therapist. (Oh…so many love songs fit this mold.) Nice use of rhyme and meter.
