No vast open spaces
In the cracks and crevices
On the tissue of my heart
Pains and past contusions
Stuffed into the dark recesses
Wounds scarred over
Wished to be left there
To rot into oblivion
In their putrid toxicity
Attempted to forget
Move forward erect in confidence
To be able to rely
In the judgement of my knowing
Finding love
Keeping it
And building a beautiful thing
