Poems by Virginia Cairns : 27 / 29
Walls
Walls
Are not what they appear to be
They keep you safe
The unknown can not get pass
Safety and security
Solid and sound
Out of nowhere
You hear sounds on the other side
Sounds of adventure
Calling for you to come explore
No doors or windows
Just walls blocking you
Climb all you want
They never end
There is no top
No way out
Trapped forever
Never to leave
Alone and safe
Is it worth it?
