I confronted the space between us;
I looked her right in the eyes.
Perplexed, I questioned her existence,
but she gave me a sly smile.
*"If it's answers that you're after,
my dear, don't waste your breath.*
*Only time will sort and simmer
the mess inside your head."*
She turned and scurried off
before I could object;
But love, she got me thinking,
about the heart that I protect.
The walls built high around my heart,
the soldiers and their swords.
From whom am I so guarded?
Who do I fear the most?
My love who holds the power alone,
holds me close tonight.

I confronted the space between us;

Perplexed, I questioned her existence,
but she gave me a sly smile.
*"If it's answers that you're after,

She turned and scurried off

But love, she got me thinking,
about the heart that I protect.
The walls built high around my heart,
the soldiers and their swords.
From whom am I so guarded?
Who do I fear the most?
My love who holds the power alone,
holds me close tonight.
