My heart, once walled and secure,
Now crumbles like a forgotten cure.
No more barriers to keep you out,
Your presence is what life\'s about.
You, at my door, a tuneful plea,
Unlocking my heart, setting it free.
With wit and pride, you make me smile,
Sweet and kind, despite a few trials.
Your flaws, like stars, in darkness gleam,
A storm within, yet pure you seem.
For you,
I\'d brave the fiercest sea,
Navigate tempests, just to be.
To call you mine, to love, to hold,
How my heart leaps, its story told.
I wish I\'d kept my door more guarded,
Prevented heartache, uncharted.
But naive and young, I let you in,
Here I stand, searching once again.
Waiting for your answer, plea at your door,
My heart\'s defenses fallen, forevermore.
