I can easily choose to ignore you, to close the door on you, to do what I’ve always done and lock up my heart and run away from even having the chance to see that you could be the one. I can easily shut you out, forget about you, move on to the next one until they tell me I’m everything they’ve been dreaming about, and then I can shut them out too, because since dad broke my heart, it seems breaking yours is just the easiest thing to do. I can pretend that I might just like you, or even love you, but who am I kidding, my heart doesn’t lie with men, I fell for a woman once and haven’t gotten up since. I can easily lie to you, tell you my soul was lost and then it found you, but my facial expressions will show you otherwise because I don’t know how to lie about love, let alone fake love, or even bring you into my sacred space, that’s not me, not then and not these days. You can keep knocking on my heart, and my door, telling me to settle or you’ll fall to the floor, but I will tell you easily, if the walls of my heart don’t feel like clouds, and the ceiling of my mind isn’t spotless, you can fall to the floor, but not outside my door.
