The fears are gone;

the walls have thought me

to stand alone and be strong;

I have the foresight to see that

beautifully adorned treasure even

when it’s coming from afar. 

Love finds it’s way quietly into our life when we least expect it; it blossoms beautifully like a rose flower. We become weak with the desire to please and be loved, there ain’t nothing bad about that especially if it’s two sided but when it’s one sided, anguish sets in.

However I don’t want to discuss the anguish side of it. Let’s talk about the love that exists between two partners. I have written topics about love a couple of times, also situations drifting around it but  I’ve I really felt it? Yes I have! ‘IN AND OUT’. I’ve seen the up’s and down’s of it, the beauty and ugliness of it. I have felt the thorns go deep into my skin.

I have reached a stage in my life that as a woman I need to break down the walls that have surrounded my heart against predators, these walls have been my best friends, my lover, everything one can ever ask for, but not the real love that exists between a man and a woman. I can feel it knocking on my door which is getting louder by the day. I want to let it in. Those thoughts of perfection that can never be realised in the opposite sex seeking for Mr All and Mighty have stopped existing.The doors to let the imperfect man come in is set. That man knocking unrelentingly on the door, the one that wants to be given a chance to love me, to show me how it is to be cared for by a real man.

Walk in through the walls

that have been brought down,

walk on the floor of banquet,

rebuild a wall that does not shut out,

plant again the roses of love that befits a queen.

Your highness! seek, wait and be given.

Take, keep and care for it.

once it’s time for harvest,

we shall all be fulfilled forever.
