Keep Guard

June 1, 2013
Come home to an empty house Eat at an empty table Sleep in an empty bed but watch your empty heart for if you do not watch if you not keep guard you may one day realize you left your doors wide open to your little, empty life so someone settled in your heart now holds another your table is set for two your bed is no longer cold your house is now called home so keep guard unless you wish to find the pain and warmth of loving, of living the joy and anger that they bring keep watch keep guard unless you wish to warm your fragile human heart
