fenced in

i have built a fence

inside of my head

to keep you out

but i have found that

tiny little pieces of memory

float over it like bubbles

and when they pop,

they sprinkle upon me

feelings of longing

for you


i have built a fence

inside my head

to keep you out

but i have found that

when it rains,

the distant memory

of your gentle smile

pours out of the sky

and into my heart


i have built a fence

inside my head

to keep you out

but i have found that

the warm breeze that

sometimes wafts in

carries your smell

and yet again i am

reminded of your beauty


i have built a fence

inside my head

to keep you out

but i have found that

the gentle rays of sunlight

that beam down

are like you, warm and

soft in every way


i have built a fence

inside my head

to keep you out

but i have found that

maybe it is better

to tear it down and

let you wear away

at me. 


note: me being dramatic again for, like, the 17th time in this compilation whoops
