everything was broken that i used to know
trust was torn and bridges were burned
but there was a silver lining
and that was him.
i should have known he would have been it
right from the very first night
but i was still caught in
old bad habits and whatever
i was caught up in at the time.
but piece by piece
he disassembled my defenses
and crumbled my attitude
til i was left
finally happy for the first time
and with a boy, at that.
my life became a mess
of sheets on the floor
wild hair
and kisses as often as i could
steal them
or receive them.
he was my silver lining
my light at the end of the tunnel.
