Walls Around My Heart

The walls around my heart was built; Warmly covered with a cosy quilt. But the bitter cold is seeping through; Whatever shall I do? The walls have started to crack; The bricks are falling down in a pack! They’re falling, more and more; This is bad, opened the love store! I thought my heart was tucked away safe; But now feelings are washing over it, wave by wave. I have been hurt before; Don’t want to be hurt no more! The sore aching pain; With nothing to ever gain! They say that they love you; And promise that their love was never so true. But in the bitter end, Away with you, go, they send! Leaving you with a heart so broken; Without a single return token! That is why my walls were built I don’t want to feel it, the guilt, Of someone loving me, Because all I wanted was to be free! Until you came along; Singing your own sad song! You cracked my walls, broke them down; And left me without a frown. All you said was really true, You asked for no more hurting you. So we decided to be a friend; Stay that way until the end. But now, we’ve both got a loving feeling; You’ve changed my mind, got it reeling! I love you! Honestly I do! Please just don’t break this heart of mine; ‘Cos that’ll be like a kick to the spine; A knife in the heart; Even a poisoned dart! This is the last chance; at a little romance. So please, let your love be true because I really do love you! All my walls are down; let our love now wear the crown!

The only reason your poem caught my eye is because I know what's it feels like to be hurt and say goodbye. Just recently I've found my guy
