Ready to shoot

romance

One minute I cant stop smiling

You run through my mind

At a million miles.

For a second or two

I let down my guards

So vulnerable in your arms.

Not a problem

If no harm decides to

Linger.

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 over

I awake from the previous night of bliss

-Sober-

Contaminated with marks

Of a warrior.

So ready to be your soldier-

Confident I can appreciate

Your 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 floor

But once more

I've become unsure.

Hesitant of this enemy

Of emotion.

Uncomfortable with coasting

Through love-

I stomp around in my combat boots.

Always ready to shoot!

Look here-

I've got the scars to prove.
