defend
your heart my
mother always said
but
this is not a fight
this is true love
and I surrender

This is an out-of-the-park home run. Glad I wrote before reading this, as if I hadn’t already written, I wouldn’t have tried. Excellent, and feel good about yourself – you wrote the truth.

Defending your heart keeps you from finding love. Love requires vulnerability Thanks, that’s a good description

True love isn’t always true to both people, I found that out the hard way. Giving yourself like that has its dangers.
