The warm breeze blows
An ease creeps in
Unexpected and not particularly welcome
There is an edge to nerves
They heighten the sense
Bringing up my guard
Keeping me armed
I am not ready to open
Not ready for trusting
There is a wall that has started to crumble
In the darkness cloaked
My heart has been left exposed
The words were so real.The resonated in my brain as I stared at them. I was finally opening up. I was completely exposed, and for the first time in my life, I wasn’t afraid of it. I welcomed it. No matter what happened between Cali and me, at the end of the day, she had finally broken me out of my shell. She had seen the real me and hadn’t cut and run. That was priceless.
