There was something about his eyes,
I couldn't quite place it,
But as I looked deeper,
What I saw was something quite small
I couldn't really tell what color they were
blue or grey, all I could feel was intimidation
I had to look away,
But, there was one thing I saw, clear.
I wasn't alone
He'd been hurt too.
He knew what it felt like to give everything his all,
He knew what it felt like to have someone make your downfall
And in that moment I realized something,
None of it had ever been me,
none of the pain,
the fear,
the arguments,
None of it was just on me.
He came like a wind,
Like a breath of fresh air.
He came and knocked down my walls,
Soon enough,
We watched it disappear...
Yet in the end,
I'd still never be enough.
Maybe you were right?
Where did I go wrong?
All these shattered pieces everywhere.
Never to make a whole
And those eyes, even though I could never tell,
I wish I could forget them.
Forget that laugh,
Forget his smile,
Forget the way it felt when he held me close,
Forget the pain.
Why couldn't I forget?
Deep amongst the wall,
No one would ever break,
This time she promised, her wall would stay.
