A closed heart, a lost soul,
a strong determination to be in control.
Trusting no one but watching all,
that's your motto in order not to fall.
Saw an open door in front of you,
you walked in to check it out,
not expecting anything,
not even sure what you'd find.

The door that was open was unfamiliar to you,
yet in some ways you felt familiar in a thing or two,
you walked in further to take a look around,
and was pleasantly pleased by what you had found.

You had walked into a room that's big and roomy,
and there were windows all around.
Some were broken and some were mouldy,
there were even holes on the  floor,
and some broken window panes,
you thought you could fix it
with a nice coat of paint.

It wasn't the perfect room,
and yet you liked it,
it needed a bit of work,
but you're willing to fix it.
The room was quite a mess,
you didn't know where to start,
but then you heard a voice,
and the beat of your heart.

All of a sudden it all came to you,
and like a pro you knew just what to do.
Each broken floorboard and broken window pane you handled with care,
you gave it your everything as you sit and repair.

You've done a good job, the room's warmer now,
no more broken window as big as a cow.
You grew attached to the room and decided to move in,
and that's where you've been living in ever since.
Who would know what's written in the stars above,
and who would've guessed our sparks of life
would ignite our flames of love.

"The broken pieces inside, they work like broken bones. If treated right, they'll heal. If not, the pain will go on and on." ~ Zee Zulu
