These Walls Poem by Mahlubandile Phillips

These Walls

You came and crushed the
Wall of loneliness, despair and
solitude
What you found beyond them
an empty void of sadness

You gave life you were the sun
happiness
you built a beautiful land
shaping me into a better man
a better character

Sheilded me with a cunning smile
I found out your eyes lied your smile
buried the night
And so it began

the walls of a broken man
I built what you once destroyed
Those walls of loneliness, despair and
solitude

Now I feel safe but ugly a wonderfull
land
once again an empty void of sadness
hope in vain I'll never come across you
again.
