The Walls

"Fragile, but Fiercely Protected"

By Stacey MoreheadPublished about a year ago • 1 min read

That hardening you feel,

Those tears you don't see fall.

All emotions keel,

The dependence on you,

Doesn't seem real.

Might come to a screeching halt,

You wonder why?

Why things seem so stressed,

Only to realize, your upset!

Upset?

Because that special someone is hurt,

Then you realize.

That's the walls!

The walls built to protect that fragile heart!
