Alone again

Alone again

crushing my soul

alone in the darkness

I searched for you

but came up empty

...once i built a wall

to protect myself

and I withered ,

and almost died

Then piece by piece

I took it down

to live again

to breath

and I know

that the the wall

has to stay down

even

if

it

kills

me.

-- for me, that wall is the war that i engage in with my 'self'... -- i need it as much as i don't need it... -- maybe constant inner conflict is not such a bad thing after all...

That wall always comes up
even when we dont want it up

I greatly enjoyed this poem. The structure and wording is very nice. I love how the message shines through very clearly.

Thank you!! Sometimes when I try to sleep...the words won't let me..I try to write them down as they come to me.

Lost love,and the fear of losing again,but surely what's in between the finding,and, if unfortunate enough to lose it,can be worth the heartache

[Gee]
