Metamorphosis Of A Soul

Within my heart and soul, dwells a place with secrets untold. A place filled with my hopes, a place where I hide all of my frailty.

As it waited I laid dormant, hoping that someone would find and take it. That finally someone would love me, instead of trying to hurt me.

As the years passed and heartache was felt, pieces of me were lost in the storm. Bits of naivety, and the discarded fragments.

Out of necessity I learned to hide it, pretending to be fine. To have a smile frozen always in place, even as inside I screamed to be free.

The locks remained closed, my heart left untouched. A lonely shell filled with shame, crying for a healing embrace.

From out of the blue you came, and now I can feel something changing. My hope is renewed, as my soul stirs with a touch from yours.

As each day passes, you are slowly freeing me from my self imposed prison. Giving me a haven where I feel safe, able to let me just be myself.

So now I still fight, but the cause has become different. I fight for our love and the connection, as threads of respect show me how to let go.

To let go of the pain and regrets, that my past slowly built. And as I let go, I feel the warmth of your love filling my soul.

This is very beautiful b/c iy shows how deep we can all into feelings of emptiness and how just as easily can be dug out again once some1 else makes their presence known in out lives.
