I Am

I Am

Yes, I am a mess
Yes, I am a broken
You caught me at my best
You gave a token

I thought it was your love
It wasn't the first time a man would have easily handed me their heart
With a wink, touch, and a kiss.

Some how you swept me off my feet
 made me fall fast and hard,
Just like I had promised my broken heart I would never do.

I was scared and confused.
So subconsciously, brought you to hell and back
I think I wanted you to understand just a tiny part of my pain.
I pushed you away, and did mean things

When you actually left it littarly brought me to my knees
At that moment I noticed that you were my second chance

For love, real life, and happiness
So I explained

Yes I am a mess
Yes I am Broken
I seen the depths of hell that people only spoken
I have some walls, for my safety
Well more for yours
I am an unpassable test.

Very compelling poetry... How often we so desperately want to find elusive love while at the same time fearing the vulnerability of getting hurt that is such a part of the total love dynamic
