Just a little idea that I had to get out of my system. If you enjoy it three cheers for me, but if not... that is cool to... after all I am so not a poet.


Fiercely protective, he guards all but my heart

Never seeing how completely that omission rips me apart

I wonder, would he stop if he saw the wounds on my soul?

But I dare not ask, fear of the answer has long since taken its toll

So I smile and pretend that all is well

Hiding my nightmares of seeing him dragged into hell

In secret I cry, in darkness I weep

For the love that I feel and the man I can't keep

I waited too long to run and now my fate has been cast

I am forever bound to his world, my heart trapped in the past

At his side do I walk, and I always will

For beyond the pain of my broken heart, hope beats still


Thanks for reading.
