I sit and watch you all pass by
I hear your tears and your laughter
I want to join you on your path
But all I can do is watch
With each day I fall deeper
Soon Ill never reach
My mind just screams
It wants to be free
I feel, I hear, I see, I can speak
But I dont want you to know
So I disappear behind my wall
And close the gate forever
My mind screams
It wants to be free
But I cant let it be
Instead I feed it dispair and pain
Until no noise can be heard....

Grim, dark and SO VERY REAL. I know that place and your 'real' write lays it out for all to see. May this grimness pass quickly into the light Allie, my friend. George
i really liked this poem, i can relate to every word you wrote, nicely done.
Alsion, sometimes the walls we build up are invisible to others. We all build them from time to time to protect us from the realities we do not want to face. I've built a few walls like that myself. I liked this poem because I could relate to what you said. - David

Wowser! think George adds everything to this with his comments, this is so very deep and so very dark. Love it Alison, do hope you found the light. HG: -) xx
