Walls

inside this womans heart is tender
but for now, it can not surrender
around it built with brick and stone
within my choosing to be alone
I know why I feel the way I feel
need the time to help me heal
I dont mean to push you away
the wall will fall again one day
but for now forgive me, please
can not give my heart with ease
don't want you to be my crutch
and yes, I do miss a lovers touch
but a heart and mind can be confused
after a time of being bruised
for what I need now is time
so I will know, what my heart feels, is mine

I hope this is true, I believe we can shut ourselves off during a loss....this made
a lot of sense to me, Helen.

Hmmm...walls are nice for awhile, but mine are beginning to close in on me here. It's going to take time. Related to this one very well.
