Love sometimes
builds bridges and
makes walls collapse.
Then sometimes love
burns down homes and
digs up graves.
But I won't let you
be the death of me.
Heartbreak drowns,
yet hope floats.
And gravity sinks,
but faith rises.
I cried all my tears
but now I can smile
knowing I survived you.
Take your match and shovel
and find someone else
to destroy.
Because it won't be me,
not anymore.
