Poem Commentary

Poem about my past...and the things a child does to protect themselves.

Safety

Safty...
a wall built within
A brick for anger, pain
for all the sorrow
built in secrecy
for a safer tomorrow.
A brick for hate
and lost innocence,
a brick for emptiness
and lost hope.
A brick for lies
and broken promises...

A brick for those
who use and abuse,
a beick for the lonely tears
shed throughout the years.

Oh so many bricks...
how high is this wall?,
so much buried away
what will it take
to make it fall???

In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.

Franz Kafka (1883-1924) Czech writer.
