I have a wall around my heart,
It stands so firm and just,
No one allowed to share my soul,
For, no one does it trust.
The wall didn't always stand here,
The doors had once, been opened.
I trust with my fragile heart,
And now it has been broken.
So, please don't say you love me,
I've heard it all before.
My love said it to me once,
Then walked right out the door.
But, if by chance you tell me,
You'll have to prove it's true,
For, the words don't mean a thing,
If I can't see the love in you.

Know the feeling

Sometimes you have to let go and move on,
But never let go of the memories.

yes, sad, but true..so you also have experienced the bite of lost love..the boat is indeed crowded..

the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost

Yes, it certainly is a crowded boat, but you have the right idea here.  True love can be seen in actions, not words.  And you expressed it very well, too. Very good thoughts here.

To love another person is to see the face of God.

You are so right, if you love me, don't tell me, prove it!
It's hard not to be skeptical if you've been hurt in the past isn't it?
Marge is right though, you have to take a chance if even it's painful.

Love is fully an action.
Words support it - but they don't make it.

Nice work here...

Like a human without illusions...
This is how the wind shifts:
Like a human, heavy and heavy,
Who does not care.

I'm still waiting for one to come leap over the wall.............Most just try to break it down, instead of going over or around....

Thank you for the comments...just waiting patiently.

great poem.  You really relate your words well to those of us who have "walls".  And although you want to love again, you need to be proved to that you won't get hurt again.  Good luck, Nic
