In or Out

Her...You have your heart back together, but the glue is still wet. You’re over him but not the hurt and you now fear that feeling that the next boy will do the same. So you do what seems natural and up goes the walls. To you the walls are protection. A boy comes along, his efforts impress you. No harm here the walls has done what you needed them to do, give you enough strength to smile. He wants to see that smile now more and more, you notice it. Now….all of a sudden every reason you put your walls up hit you in the heart, all the pain is back. The boy is doing everything right, he holds your hand and it fits perfect. When he kisses you, you have to make yourself breathe. Yet it has to be too good to be true. Now you are questioning his intent. What is his past, why is he single. . This feeling that is stopping you is what will push him away. The walls you put up did do what you needed but what you over looked was what the walls were keeping in. You have now put this boy, which is all about you, on the same pedestal that the boy that destroyed you is on.........
Him.........You have your heart back together, but the glue is still wet. You’re over her but not the hurt and you now fear that feeling that the next girl will do the same. So you do what seems natural to you, and hope sets in. To you the hope is your answer. A girl comes along, her efforts impress you. No harm here the hope has done what you needed it to do; it gave you enough strength to smile. She wants to see that smile now more and more, you notice it. Now….all of a sudden all your hope fills you with happiness, there are no worries. The girl is doing everything right, she holds your hand and it fits perfect. When she kisses you, you have to make yourself breathe. Yet it has to be too good to be true because now she is questioning your intent. What is your past, why are you single. . This feeling that is bringing you down is what will push you away. The hope that you had used to get yourself to smile, did do what you needed but what you over looked were her walls. You have now put yourself on the same pedestal that the boy that hurt her is on.
So in or out is the question, what is better building a wall that makes you feel protected from the boy that wants to love you, or having hope that there is a girl that will let you love her.

From a 'HER' with many walls, your impression is spot on! I am learning to separate the walls that 'protect', from the walls that 'confine'...
