Crumbling Walls

<p>Emily<br /><br />I had a good life… a safe life…a quiet life…<br />I had a place to live and food to eat and a bed to sleep in…<br />Books to read paper to draw on and a friend who didn't mind when I wouldn't answer questions…<br />I didn't realize I also had a hole in my heart and a void in my soul…<br />Until I met Jack…<br />He ran headlong into my walls and broke through them crumbling them to the ground seeing the real me and choosing to stay by my side.<br /><br /><br />Jack<br /><br />I had a great life… a loud life… a different life…<br />I lived with my parents and five brothers in a new house in a new neighborhood in a new town…<br />I spent hours on my bike riding miles at a time…<br />Or I did until a quiet girl sitting on her front porch brought me to a screeching halt…<br />And I found something and someone I never knew I needed in the first place... <br />Her name is Emily and she makes me whole.<br /><br /><br />A boy on his bike a girl on her porch...<br />Not all stories start so simply but the story of Jack and Emily does.</p>
