A Wall of Feelings

When you love someone but you don't want to

Is it bad that I already miss you

That I already crave your touch 

This is a feeling that's all new

I have never felt this much

Feelings create walls around me 

And I am trapped inside

But they aren't here to protect me

These walls won't help me hide 

These walls show me emotion 

They should me smiles and tears

Yet they can't be removed in any motion

These walls are up for years

It was you who put up this wall

And only you can knock them down

Too bad I can't give you a call

Because you will never stick around 

You left when times got tough

And I drowned in my sorrow

But you'd think I would've had enough

Even though I would take you back tomorrow

They tell me to stay strong

To never let you back in

WIthout you, it feels so wrong

Like I'm living my life a sin

They tell us that sin is bad

ANd it's the worst thing we can do

So why should I still be glad

That I wouldn't hesitate to love you

"They tell me to stay strong
To never let you back in
Without you, it feels so wrong
Like I'm living my life a sin."
These lines conclude all your feelings well done It's really good I liked the way you expressed your emotions.

This is a very heartfelt poem. I know how it feels to cling to those walls we build up to keep the pain out. You did an excellent job with expressing the safety those walls bring. Great job! :)

You love your walls, don't you? You also happen to know how to use them very effectively in your poetry. I think this would sound pretty good as a song as well...have you ever thought about songwriting? If not, give it a try, you could be good =)

Thanks! And I would try but I don't know how to play a musical instrument haha

You're welcome! Oh, well, poetry is good too! :)
