By Fiona Cummings
Brick by brick I have built my wall
Standing so strong and incredibly tall
I feel so safe behind it you
know
No one can find me no one at all
Nothing can break this secure wall
Away from the world which tries to enter me in war
Though heavy machinery tries to chip away
I just build it up for another day
Wishing they would all go away
Leave me alone
I want to be on my own
No one can hurt me now
No tears are left to cry
All of my emotions have ran dry
Sitting on my bench reading my book
Never I will be caught by that rusty hook
Very safe
I know my place
Looke at the lines upon my face
Telling a story about what I have seen
Explaining the horrors of where I have been
My old bones are crumbling
My body is grumbling
My joints are not so free as they were
My innocent life is not so pure
I am still waiting for that amazing cure
Pills of happiness
Removing the sadness
Flicking through the pages looking at random words
Listening to the beautiful black birds
The leaves are falling around my feet
A small white cat joins me on my seat
How harmless are animals
I love the sweet smells
I am quite content with my life behind the wall
I feel so safe away from them all
My life in my book is my get away
People to me mean nothing at all
I am quite happy living my life this way
No one to bother me no one to call
Where were the people when I started to fall
So safe I am now with my shell of my wall
Each time I turn the pages I am hugged by a shawl
Arms around me
Calm deep within
No more tragedy
I know who will win
