it's funny how i build these walls around my heart: strong, resistant, resilient; they protect it from the sharp edges of slipped words from your tongue, they shield my heart from the harshness of spitfire. and yet they. always. break even after how many times i rebuild these tall walls, even after adding multitudes of obsidian, it always breaks under your words and i'm growing tired the once overflowing energy in my veins are slowly diminishing, the nerves building this wall around my heart are slowly losing their light and there will come a day where i don't have the energy to rebuild these defenses, where my heart will lay beating but vulnerable and there will be a day where your words hit just the right spot, and then there i will be, slowly bleeding out, color draining from me as i find it harder and harder to get up but today will not be that day, i will continue to build these defenses, only letting those worthy to enter, my heart will still beat and it will beat strong today, your words will simply bounce off these obsidian walls and fall to their demise
