SHATTERED PART 1

Carefully encased in steel
Safe from harm lay the disguise of my sentiments
I was certain glass was safe in steel and free from detriment.
For a long time I kept all emotion latent

It felt safe
Didn't want black or white so I chose grey
Neither hated nor loved but would keep em close and hoped they'd stay.

Truth is, everyone wanted to get in but I wasn't ready to disclose my vulnerability.
Then on spur of moment came along a rare experience
Far from expectations
A reality only to be dreamt of and never imagined to be true
A perfect fit and sync it was
Taste in music, fashion, style...it didn't take a while before I forgot why I decided never to feel again

For you I felt like I could stop a train with my bare hands
Or count the sand on the shore
Felt so real that it melted the steel that shielded the delicate glass in my core.

Unknown.
