Poetry: Love is you

by Fantasia Harrington

Created on: October 20, 2009

I spent years building this wall and avoiding loves call,

but instead of calling you sent a message via email.

I answered without knowing that love was your name,

and now in such a short time, the flicker that once burned low is now a full flame.

what have you done?

I spent so much time building this wall with my bear hands,

and to have one man tear it down strikes fear in my heart,

Winter is coming will I be cold? or will this man called love let me into his home?

Feeling that I have no control, I just pray that this is fate and not a hoax

love, I love that you chose me and know I love you back.

Those bricks I carried made me strong, so please know if you intend to do me wrong; I will not break

But I will fight back.

Love, I believe in fairytales...do you?
