A Crack Appeared

By MG

A Crack Appears

I am all armoured up

Keeping in check, taking my stance
defenses in place, doing my dance
I am all armoured up

Facing forward, controlling the chills
sensitivities heightened, sharpening my skills
I am all armoured up

As the cries get louder, the bars grow taller
deafening shrills, sharpening my skills
I am all armoured up

Breaking free, merely a dream
on high alert, my insides scream
Covering my tracks, polishing my rackets
the boxes stay shut, covering my casket
I am all armoured up

Never giving up,
today is the day the crack appears

Author Statement

the words just flowed as I felt familiar old feelings emerging
and after the crack appeared, the pain and sorrow from my youth came
flooding out . ON the path to healing this
