Atticus79
There are walls
Walls built around every surface of your heart
They are tall, strong, and fortified by steel bars
But I am not afraid of your walls
I am not afraid of the challenge of chipping away slowly
breaking down your barriers, layer by layer
until finally you allow me to live inside your heart.
You stand with your hand outstretched
Reaching to lift me up
Drag me from my knees and
Raise me up into the clouds where I can fly
away in the color of your eyes
beyond the horizon of heartache
and with a smile and kiss
I know I do not deserve you.
I sat on the edge of the sidewalk and stared at the cracks in the street in front of me and wondered where they came from. Whose worn shoes have stepped over it in a childhood exclamation of break your mommas back before they learn where real cracks come from and the pain the bring with them
I came upon you by accident, scrolling through the pages of life, a skip and a swipe to the right, when all of a sudden I saw myself reflected in your aviators, and accidentally and immediately fell in love
Tall strong standing in the middle of my mind stands the statue of you holding mu heart in your hands, cradling it carefully in an attempt to keep it safe
