One minute I cant stop smiling
You run through my mindAt a million miles. For a second or twoI let down my guardsSo vulnerable in your arms. Not a problemIf no harm decides toLinger. You have me at the tips of your fingers. The armor I wear protects my body-Unshared- My heart-Unveiled- Then the hard shift through the wind knocks me overI awake from the previous night of bliss-Sober- Contaminated with marksOf a warrior. So ready to be your soldier- Confident I can appreciateYour spirit. Do to your body what others cannot-X marks the spot- I've fought in this war before.Glorified treaties behind closed doors. My coat of arms gently falling to the floorBut once moreI've become unsure. Hesitant of this enemyOf emotion. Uncomfortable with coastingThrough love- I stomp around in my combat boots.Always ready to shoot! Look here- I've got the scars to prove. Written ByDesiree Chavez
