Strong As a Hearts Resistance

Stone partitions stretching somewhere in the distance borders beckon cross not here as strong as a hearts resistance though intentions are most sincere cobweb covered disappointments when trust like ancient ruins turn Divided by protections wall closing off and closing in Defenses unlikely to fall From distant glance a palisade of sure protection beautiful as strength appears But for all the stones raised round a heart It alleviates not one of its fears It suffices only for the warning at the calling it's drawing near I'm coming past these stones you've cast Additions equation by the year An unsuspecting intruders disguise clothed in the eyes of a lover Let me in, I'm drawing closer Like a chisel bent and aimed for demise Saying unlike stone you do not hold me Through times when my world falls apart Love alone is not enough to own me like the filling of my empty to impart For only then can my bulwark endure the crumble of the wall encasing my heart Greet me first with morning joy Toil with me under the sun Do not release me under the light of the moon Of burdens light and laughters fun Maybe someday when faith is stronger when it's safe to rest and not to lead I can live a faith without borders And of these stone partitions be free

The struggles you have are so poignantly expressed in your poetry's embrace. Would there could be something I could say or do that would calm a bit your stormy seas.

When you have a Heart that is so beautiful I can understand why you wish to protect it. If not it would most certainly be stolen. I hope that the thief who does steal it will be worthy of it's beauty.
