The first day I saw you, I was struck with awe;
So strong, so kind... Yet, that's not all I saw.
A broken spirit, so full of pain;
No one else saw that your smile was strained.
Your laugh was forced, your goofyness a shield;
To hide the horrors, of a past you had sealed.
I was intrigued to say the least, wanting to know more;
Spending hours and days working my way behind those doors.
You slowly let me see, a little at a time;
The pains you had left behind you, the reason for your rhyme.
As I started to learn, I realized there was much more;
Things I didn't know if I wanted to see, things you had in store.
Others started to notice, the weakness in your stride;
And as my work deteriorated, they forced you once again to hide.
So many hours of chipping, chiseling and breaking walls down;
Were ruined in no time, when others saw your frown.
People became vicious, looking into your past;
Snooping into records closed, and revealing things at last.
I fell into some of the lies, pressured by what they had to say;
But in the end I knew they were wrong, and I knew I wanted to stay.
You hurt me when you left me, but I didn't help the cause;
I fell into other's games, baring my teeth and claws.
It's hard to admit, but I still love you;
And still wonder and what could have been.
I wish it wasn't over, and yet....
Can't help but wonder if it's even begun.
