Masked beneath my skin’s layers lie the most important
memories I hold
A song sang in the silent stillness whispering shallow
cries within my soul 
Broken images border my mind, memories of what once was
Fear of what will become of this once perfect formation of
love   
If only you embodied my spirit could you truly comprehend
The length I would go to make you happy, just to love you
once again
My soul became your possession at the simple soft-spoken
tremble of “I love you”
And since that day my life has changed I gave my entirety
to you
I’d hike to the end of the planet to pick you up when you
descend
I’d take my life if it insured you never to feel hurt
again
You are the most vital part of my survival, the beat to
which my heart sings
You are the one true love I dreamt of in my imagination,
you are my make believe
Could I ever demonstrate these feelings to you and make you
believe in our love
Or will my mind be forever confined to broken images of
what once was
