thoughts on clouds

IM not too sure if you're the one for me but you sure make me feel special

and when he looked into my eyes he saw so much more than the dark brown speckled with burst of pain 

He saw so much more than the slight twitch of my nose and quiver in my lips at the wind blowing too strong 

He saw into my soul 

he saw the symphony of pain and pleading dancing around my capillaries and rushing through my veins 

He saw the torture of feeling too much and never being good enough 

deep inside my chest and the cage around my heart 

Put in place to protect me 

Put in places to stop me from loving 

For I have loved too hard and I have fallen too deep

And I've been crushed until my brittle bones could only be seen in the ashes of my past flames 

And I've been toyed with and strung along like a broke string playing a forgotten chord 

he saw the ugly twists and turns of hatred and revenge hidden in the deepest parts of my soul 

He saw the ugly snakes darting out when least expected without care for the collateral damage .

He saw it all with only his two hazel eyes.

Yet not once did his flame waver .

Not once did he threaten to flicker out 

He burned 

And boy did he burn bright 

Bright enough to light up both of our hearts 

and maybe bright enough to lead me out of the darkness
