Expectations

Expecting nothing I was going through life.
The stones people thrown have made me revise,
The choice I have made to never let go
The walls I have built protecting from fall.

But life has a way of twisting things around
When you let me see the glimpse of your soul
Related to darkness yet so full of light
The never ending stories we have told.

Expecting nothing I still go through life
But instead of stones, the flowers have grown.
The kindness, support, appreciation you’ve shown
The walls are now falling, and I’m ready for more.
