blather
my_walls
fierce_otterpup are down

your eyes are deep
and you stared at me for hours

and we came alive
we both look so different
when that happens
someone once said when i'm like that i'm most beautiful
and i like that idea

people watch and see
and talk
and i fear that
when barriers are back in place
i blush
i feel scared and ashamed and wish it hadn't happened

but when we all open up
then there's no need
for walls
(and secretly i'm glad they're down)
