"You" Week 3 Poem (Theme: Love)

You,
Stranger
are the man who caught my eye
the very first hour,
you had me.

Caped in your shadow
grieving hard lessons learned
wearing the armor that holds your body upright
and your heart
impenetrable.

Within you, I see
Circling vultures
protecting a fragile nest
where I may never be welcome

You are always,
one word shy of
the three words I need

But with you,
I have fallen in love.
