Wall Of No Emotion Poem by Jasmine Appelhaus

When i felt i couldnt control
what did i do?
i built a wall
i built a wall to keep it all away
i opened a door
and i locked away my pain
my suffering
my heartache
my misery
i locked away every emotion
when i realized it hurt this bad
i locked myself away and became a shell
became a shell of who i once was
i no longer feel
no longer cry
i dont care anymore
i give up
if i died today
i would die with a blank face
no one can break down my silent wall
no one can bring me back to life
