years ago


 A million mysteries
A lifetime of holding back
Before I met you
I reach within myself
You are all I find
A story of a broken heart
Nothing new
Wanting to extend my barrier
To include you
Yet I only drive you away
What was real?
I may never know
In my mind I envisage
Your words came from your heart
Your actions
Were only reactions
You being apprehensive
And who am I to point blame
Fear is a flesh eating demon
Consuming you inch by inch
Placing your heart on display
And I encouraged the trepidation

This one confuses me. I mostly don't understand it. Maybe it's the way it's structured.

It's the pushing someone away and wondering why
