Resistance to Love

help me darling for I am falling
your arms are the only sanctuary I want
a hand reaches for me as our lips touch
it grabs me when we embrace
I am pulled to safety not with your arms
But your words encase my heart with passion
It protects me because it is what I was missing
Retribution for the love I revealed
Leaving me and my thoughts naked
It was harder for me to love this time around
Because of the callous scars on my heart that appeared
To repair the one thing that is real about me
