I am a wall.
A tower.
A freaking barricade.
Nothing goes through me because I can read your twisted mind.
I know what you want.
I know what your desires are.
I know your fears, your passions.
You are dangerous. You need to stay away.
I am hidden.
I don't have to feel your pain, your joy, your vulnerability
Behind this wall, this tower, this barricade - I am safe.
So what if I'll never know?
I've seen enough of everyone else's love.
I am scared for my own. What if it shatters? Drops?
What if I can't get back up?
I'll never know...
... But...
You are Love. You are dangerous.
You need to stay away.

Love is pretty dangerous. But overcoming that danger makes us stronger.
