These Walls

I spent my entire life Building these walls Hiding among the shadows So that I couldn't fall Feelings I cast out Independence then over shadows Humor I tend to use To fight my toughest battles Not looking for love Trying to keep flying solo Keeping my emotions at bay Tending to keep myself hollow Then you caught me off guard There was awkwardness at first But as the days moved on I began to feel the thirst The thirst of your love Your kind and gentle touch I began to show my feelings And at first it was just to much The walls I feel are breaking My heart is fully exposed An award sir you should receive Because no other person has known Its only been a short while But I hope this lasts forever I'm trusting you with this gift I'd say your rather clever So please don't take advantage I'm starting to stand tall I love you babe with all my heart Your the only one to break my wall I finally see the light again Feeling blessed in each and every way Thank you for for coming into my life I really hope you decide to stay So bring on the future Joys, fights, laughter, and tears Because I know we can conquer Relationships I no longer fear I hope this stays strong Lets go along for the ride I look forward to what may come Cause I know you will always be by my side
