Heart that is guarded behind false smiles and false assurances
Walled in by the pain, beaten and broken tears mixed with blood
Tucked away no longer worn on the sleeve of outstretched arms
Remain hidden within this chest but the safest place is still further away
Looking deep inside fear grabs hold and uncertainty digs it’s claws in
Heart so well guarded could never be reached but only set free
Walls break down brick by brick
Heart mended piece by broken and shattered piece
Heart so beautifully disastrous and dangerously fragile with a million cracks on the surface
Telling the tale of love’s catastrophe it could fall apart at any given moment
Standing alone on the pedestal with no end of loneliness in sight
Afraid not only of remaining here guarded but thin lies and fake smiles
But of taking that step off the edge not knowing if there will be a place to land
Or just more pain, more of the same
