Her Fears
9/24/07
She knows what she feels
She knows how much she wants to just
Close her eyes and fall.
Yet she won’t let herself
She’s afraid of the risk of it not being real
And getting hurt again.
The walls she has up surround her to protect
Her must be weak, she thinks,
But at least they haven’t crumbled, so she still
Has some protection from the
Emotions and from the feelings that lay
Outside her walls.
She hides behind these walls shaking in
Fear of what’s outside of them.
For all the times she went and let the walls
Down she was hurt
Beyond comprehension and expression.
Inside her walls and her fears
She knows at sometime, someone will break
Thru the walls and get To her.
But when he does will it be to
Save her or
Deceive her
Like the rest?
She’d give anything and everything to be
Rid f these fears and to
Fall into the unknown only to have
Him there to catch her.
But she can’t, her past hurts and present fears
Won’t let her take
That risk.
So she sits with her fears,
Inside her walls
And hears the call of her
deepest hopes and dreams but she wont get up
Up from her dark and lonely corner
To see if what she wants
Is on the other side of her walls this time
Because the risk is still to great,
right now.
