If only you knew,
that I brace myself
each time you exhale.
With no warning,
I open my heart
with an attempt to
comprehend the
kaleidoscope of emotion
that will begin to pour out
from the depths of your heart,
leaving no chance of escape in sight;
inevitably consuming mine.
Forcing me to confront
all of the things
that I struggle
to keep buried.

If only you knew,
that I brace myself
each time you exhale.
With no warning,
I open my heart
with an attempt to
comprehend the
kaleidoscope of emotion
that will begin to pour out
from the depths of your heart,
leaving no chance of escape in sight;
inevitably consuming mine.
Forcing me to confront
all of the things
that I struggle
to keep buried.
