For all the mistakes of my past
I pushed him away
Fighting, arguing
Keeping him at bay
But I forgot
He was no coward
Neither a bully
None from my past
A lover rookie
He was a man
Of his actions and words
The one who promised
A better world
Delicately, yet with strength
He brought down my walls
Slowly unearthing emotions
I once thought were lost
In dark dungeons…

It's difficult to love someone after you've been completely shattered. You tend to pull your walls higher, put up your defense mechanisms, and push anyone away who shows the slightest bit of interest in you. All because you fear the past repeating itself. But there will always be that one person who isn't intimated by your walls but challenges to bring them down. Their constant love and care will prove that not everyone is the same. They will bring sunshine when you believed the tunnel wouldn't end. And they are the ones you shouldn't let go of. They... ARE THE KEEPERS
