Self Fortified
These brick walls I wear
my cinder block insulation
rock hard cloak
keeps the world out
where I reside
in solitary isolation
I can never reach
behind these walls high
no one can breach
All I have
of the outside
is a sky
I can never reach
Quit it then
ReplyDeleteBut oh yes, the feeling is more familiar than I care to admit
Thanks Ann... Going to try and start chipping away at my wall
DeleteYes, we think we're protecting ourselves...instead we end up hurting ourselves.
ReplyDeleteWe all have walls. It's our protective function. Hopefully, your wall is not so high no one can enter. I distinctly remember *someone* saying everyone needs help from time-to-time (or in so many words). And I agree with Talon. We end up hurting ourselves..
ReplyDeleteIt's always heartwarming to have nice people on the other side of the wall ;)
