Showing posts with the label wall

Scared and unworthy

This poem was written for all the people who understand and have been through this particular phase in life, or know someone who has.  My head is yelling at me About all the stupid things I've done. It tells me I'm unworthy  For anyone I love. I feel the pain it brings me,  My lack of self-esteem,   the And the fear it drives into my heart. The idea that anyone could love me After all the nasty things. I build my walls up high  Trying to keep myself safe,  fear is the tool that drives me there; While secrets are what makes my walls unsafe.  The fear of showing people myself. The fear of opening up. Its the fear that drives me under cover Away from difficult situations. My fear pushes people I care about away  With out me realizing until its to late. It brakes me up from inside out  And yet, still I build my walls high Making the same mistakes  I should know by now not to mak...

My Walls

I build my walls up high,  And layer them miles wide. To keep my feelings buried inside, And hidden from the world outside. There's only one path thru, And very few ever brake through. By Evelyn Creon
