berlin wall

i've never been so comfortable
as i've been my days with you
i have no masks
no false pretenses
and i know i don't have to.

but i'm the one who's holding back
afraid to really let go
of all my fear
of my lonely past
and i'm shocked i let you know

that night you held me as i cried
it felt like i had come home
you saw my heart
and cuddled my soul
you started breaking down my stone

the walls i'd put around my heart
have kept so many away
i still have some
they're starting to fade
you'll tear them all down some day.
