The fences are up, <br />The doors locked tight, <br />The windows shut, <br />Curtains closed. <br /> <br />A wall has been built around my heart. <br /> <br />What can you throw at it? <br />To break it down? <br /> <br />Sorry? <br />I was wrong? <br />I miss you? <br />I love you? <br /> <br />Stop! Stop! <br />I give in! <br />The wall has crumbled! <br />It lies in a heap. <br /> <br />But still, I keep one stone, <br />Always there, <br />Always ready to be rebuilt, <br />Each time, <br />You hurt me.<br /><br />Aisha Sherazi<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-wall-around-my-heart/
