Armor Plated Heart

armorI find happiness in your arms,embraced by the suit  of armor,as I lay against your shielded heartwhile you try so wellto hide the past inside.I feel your beat:pitty-patty,thump-thump,lub-dub,jumping inside the armor.I cannot reach it.I cannot remove the fears.I cannot eraseyour previous stories.At times I’m impulsiveand frustratedbecause I want so muchto hear all your sensationsclearlyinstead of mild vibrationsechoing through the metalof your suit.Frequently the noise seemsso shallow and I ask myselfif you are even human.Someday the metalarmor plated coveringmust come offand I will cherishthe sounds,the touch,the scentsof finally reuniting with your soul...the one I met a thousand years ago.
