her foundation

[Belfastbird]

When my walls came tumbling down

I cried desperately for help

Left to my own devices

While on my own, I fell

I could not get off the ground

I did not know how to rise

Completely defeated

While no one, heard my cries

A woman, still I am

And still, I have a heart

I know I made some choices

That have broken me apart

But someone can you see me?

I'm not every mistake I made

I pray someone to free me

From the jail inside my head

The walls around me are cracking

I can feel them closing in

With everything I'm lacking

Will I ever be me again?

That's very good, and touching too. x

Lovely poem. It reminds me of that song "I've built walls, a fortress deep and mighty that none may penetrate. If I never loved, I never would have cried". Thanks for sharing x
