Safe

Slow and monitored, cautiously induced. It is restrain in so many less words. The forethought is always premeditated to ensure the irrevocable is prevented. Steering emotions in the correct direction. "Right" would let the heart guide; "correct" allows the mind forceful control. A lion's heart to many - brave, maybe courageous, the truth is I'm a coward. Pushing in the opposite direction to avoid damage, I have encased the most fragile part - pure yet tainted, it holds no toxins, no grudges, no shrewdness. It is only free within its cell, rare and soft... my most precious possesion. I hide it from misunderstanding, judgement, mischief, irrationality, selflessness, but ultimately...love.
