Closer to Better

Gradually coming closer to peace,

as the silent whispers cease.

Quietly getting better,

she's let you in, unlike the day you met her.

The closer you get, the better she is,

though constantly giving herself a quiz...

Follow the head or the heart?

Can't decide the weaker part.

Her brain decides so she builds walls,

You climb in, hoping they'd fall.

Dagnabit! This is scary, much like the Virgin Mary -

It had to be - unable to see - what the outcome would be

Jesus be a fence, not a hindrance

Stop this girl's kicking, time is ah ticking.

So many emotions, you make her feel,

the best is helping her heal.

Her heart is at risk, trying to maintain this -

This love, this life isn't free of strife.

Loathing vulnerability, loving security,

she continues to trust, displaying her maturity.

Through it all, she knows

the closer, the better.

even when you upset her.

She shows signs of that girl of old,

It's the lioness in her, she remains bold.

Continue to keep her in your prayers,

You've melted away the toughest layers.

You're closer to better more-so now than ever.

A strong bond that will not sever.
