Mental ScrewsA Poem by Poetry PigNo matter how many built up mental barriers you may have, there is always that one person (or several) that will tear them down.
I know my past with women isn't something I like to mention
There's a lot that I leave out in the final image But once you've got my attention, I will begin to listen Hearing that beautiful noise, that soft calming voice Makes me regret my decision To not trust you, making you feel as if you always lose Because I'm afraid the screws in my head will come loose Holding up the barricade I've made Leaving me vulnerable to the hurt I'm used too But my honest intention, the truth I just want to hold your hand Lay beside you, looking at the stars and the moon Listening to any rant you may have To try and help you, even if there isn't anything I can do To be your biggest fan And stand by your side, to support whatever you may choose I'm not perfect, I've made mistakes But I've learned from them, and I'm willing to do what it takes A chance to be with you, I'd go any distance No amount of cuts, bruises, or scrapes Will stop me till I finish This time fear won't get in my way That's a promise I'm willing to make And I can feel them, the screws They are rattling loose... © 2015 Poetry PigAuthor's Note
