shelter
July 30, 2014
you shattered me to a million irreparable shards
I did not bother to pick up the bits and pieces
No longer did you deserve to see me bent over for mercy
The trash is where those went
Those of my past state of being
God gave me some cash
I bought myself a new set of eyes
Ones you have, and never will, gaze deeply into
The fire in your eyes was merely the lies you held
Shaded beneath those lashes
Hidden from view
I built a castle of myself
With a moat and a dragon
The dragon Roars
Louder than our love ever could
