They told you heart break was the most painful
That losing your love tears your heart
Something you didn’t want to experience
So you put a wall around my heart
To prevent damage to it
You  thought you were invincible
The strongest
With an army that doesn’t let anything in
Nor anything out
Your  words your weapons
To slay any thing that will bring harm to your heart
So you dated and your heart was never in it
you were so busy protecting your heart your castle
you forgot your body your temple
With your beautiful long legs
your thighs thick to an extent
your *** what they call tangible
***** perky and fresh looking
They told you to look out for heart hunters
No one told you about the body hunters
you were busy protecting your heart
While most were never interested in it
And now you look at my body
Your  broken temple
So battered so shattered
Guilt like no other rushes over you
And as you stood there naked before him
With tears that came from your heart
Your walls break apart
Your impenetrable wall finally let something out, emotions  
Tears of anger tears of disappointment
You wished someone told you
Your  body needed protection too
Because its out here in the open
your heart would never attract what you wont allow
But who or what your body attracts
For that you are powerless
the body that you had no problems with
before you met him
became the thing you hate the most
it felt damaged it felt defiled
You wish they told you to protect it above all
You  wish they told you
The pain was not only physical
But also heart felt
To give your body to someone
Who will never appreciate it
And insult you for having such a temple
At first you try to hide it
You are ashamed to have it
And slowly you tear it down
Muscle by muscle
Your temple falls apart
You no longer care you no longer value it
And so you turn your back to the world
Because someone told you
You should be ashamed of having such a body
Since you failed in protecting your body
You neglect you heart next
And soon the pent up emotions all come out
And you are left a wreck so beautiful but yet so broken
Allow me to call you beautifully broken
But let me remind you
You are the one who protected your heart
Let that same strong will and love protect your body too
Rise up and build your temple anew
Make it prettier and brand new
Let them see it and realize they cant get near you
Because now you know your body needs protection too
And your scars and marks will show them
That you survived that but have no plans
Of  going through it all again
Let your scars be your *******
To anyone who doesn’t see what you have
A temple.
