Glorified .

My heart was porous.
Engorged in black, suffocating
Collapsing in on itself
Piece by piece, he tore me apart
Until I remained simply a fragile framework
Of what I once was.

But slowly, surely, you came
Filling the gaps, one by one
With not blood, with not flesh
For I needn't what I last had.
You gave me something more - newfound
Light, shining with the valour of a thousand splendid suns.

Your caramel eyes, that warm smile
That all too soon, became a necessity.
Artwork of my dreams, paintings of my reality
Slowly, the picturesque fantasy became real to me.
You're all I have, you're all I need,
For to my future, only your heart leads.
