BEHIND YOUR WALL

I look into your eyes and wonder exactly what you are feeling. You hide behind that gray, cold wall as if letting anything through would break everything you have ever known and worked for. I wonder how you got this way, so cold and unwelcoming; yet, I know it's who you are. It makes you tough; it allows you to make decisions to protect those around you; it makes you a leader; it makes you strong. You live as if the world would never accept what is behind your stone wall. The world fears you and you allow them to believe everything they hear about you. You are the womanizer, the enemy, the tough guy, the guy to come to when in serious trouble and the guy that no one messes with in New York. I look into your eyes today and see some blue begin to shine through the cold gray. Your wall has broken but you still stand tall. The newsies in New York still respect and fear you. You are still tough, strong, and a leader. You have lost nothing but your gray stone wall which your emotions hid behind. I don't know what I did to break the wall but it has crumbled before my eyes and I now see a new person standing before me. I see a person who may eventually build a new wall but has allowed one person to see into his heart. I see love and pain, happiness and hurt, joy and sorrow. I see behind the wall as we stand today together and can't help wondering why you chose me out of all the others that you have been with and could have selected. I turn to look out at our friends and I can tell they see no difference in you. You are still the tough Brooklyn leader that nobody should mess with. But I no longer see you as just my leader. You are now my lover, my best friend, my husband and my world. Life has given us many unwanted twists in life but if they have all led to this moment in my life they have all been worth it. I pledge my life to you, the man that is known around New York to have a heart of stone and no emotions. I never thought that I would be the one to break the stone and that I would be the lucky girl you pledge your life and emotions to. But here I am today with you. We have a lifetime ahead of us in which the world will still see you as the cold, harsh, unwelcoming and tough Brooklyn leader as you rebuild your stone wall; however, this time you won't be alone behind that wall. I will stand beside you until the world ends for my love has broken your wall and you in return have broken mine. We once were two of a kind hiding from the world behind our cold, gray, concrete walls buy now we have broken free and are no longer alone in our life journeys, we are together. Always together. And as I see you smile at me as I hear "You may kiss the bride." I realize I have not only let you into my heart but you have cleared the ruble of my past away from my heart and I know I will never be the same because you are now in my life. You are my love, my protector, my life, my husband and my world. You are forever in my heart and even if our walls rebuild we will always know we are together behind our cold, gray, concrete walls. Always together behind our united wall against the world.

THE END

This is my first fan fiction and so I decided to make it a one shot type thing please review and tell me if I should try to do a full out story I'm a little nervous. I've started one and will post it soon and it will just be a tryout it will be called "Game of Life" with the main Newsies characters being Spot, Race, Mush, Blink, and Jack with some of my new characters. Look for it in the future. Thanks. ~ Beats
