This isn't really a poem, it's more of a tribute to any girl who thought that love didn't exist and then was proven wrong - because something that doesn't exist couldn't possibly hurt this much.
You broke down all those walls that I worked so hard to build, and they fell around my feet in ruins.
You melted away the ice from my voice that had kept me safe all these years, and I could only ever speak to you softly.
You made me look into your eyes, and I thought that I would never look away.
You ended the numbness that had staved off the pain in my life, and then took the pain away too.
You showed me that I could love someone - you, and only you.
But then you showed me that you loved someone else, and I didn't want to believe it.
You tore down all of my defenses, and left me weak and vulnerable.
You touched my heart, and you broke it.
Fighting is pointless
Giving up is even worse
Just live while you can
