Awake

Did you hear that sound?

The sound of the door opening to my heart.

It's been shut for so long I had forgotten where I hidden the key.

I guess you found it.

I closed that door for a reason.

There was pain behind that door, monsters that ate at my soul and broke my heart.

How could it be the dream that I had resisted for so many years now is being opened again.

I had lost hope for my fairytale.

The dreams of romance long dead.

Why do you have to raise it from the grave?

Don't awaken love before its time haven't you heard?

Those imaginations that little girls have of breath taking love are what storybooks are for.

You're telling me that it's real?

Please let this not be a cruel joke.

I don't think I can weather another heartbreak.

As it is my heart is of fragile glass once broken over and over into millions of pieces.

Now that its whole don't let it go to waste.

Give it to the one who will keep it into eternity.

Don't tell me something that is not true.

Don't speak hope and then lies happen.

For my heart is awake and it can't take too much more.
