All of a sudden, I woke up
and found everything I never knew I needed
in you.
I had long lived in a world
closed off from the entire concept
of love
Once I finally opened up,
it was to the wrong person.
Someone who made me hurt in ways
I didn't know human beings could hurt.
Without even doing anything.
Because
They did nothing.
My walls rose once more
Twice as strong.
And I lived like that for a while
Unwilling to leave my desolate prison.
One of which I had
imprisoned myself in
of my own free will.
And suddenly, one night,
You crashed in like a wrecking ball.
Breaking down walls
I had never intended to take down.
Walls I had believed to be strong
And safe.
But I realized once I let you in,
that I've never felt safer
than I do by your side.
I've never felt more comforted
Than in those long seconds
Crying in your arms.
Those few seconds in your embrace
that feel like years.
Years I can look forward to.
with you.
