Coffee Cup Heart

I have a a newly repaired heart it's recovered after so much damage and through the pain and tears I've always seemed to manage My heart is warm inside and the ice has chipped away and each and everyday it prays that someone will stay I rarely love with out dilution because taking down these walls is a danger and I am afraid of more pollution so often I stay a stranger to love Sometimes I fall too fast and the high eventually dies and I crash like a junkie without his secret stash I am addicted to falling I can't lie My heart craves love but it can be an acquired taste I have yet to find someone who doesn't make me want to run away I have a coffee cup heart so beware of me and if your in need of a sip I might not be the best thing for you but you just might be the thing that I need.
