Inside My Walls

I take you in like water
to quench my thirst and pain.
I breathe you in like the air
that keeps my lungs and pulse.

I couldn't resist
leaning on your shoulder
and feeling the warmth of your chest.

My feelings were in a twist,
flying in the land of nowhere,
before you insisted
on mending my broken pieces
and creating a new world
inside my walls.
