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
