Crumbling Down

Fortress
Isolated in fading fog of naivety

Solid Trust

Never think of a lie

 

I look to the walls and see a crack

Water trickling in

 

A taste

So bitter

I want to spit it out

 

But yet I have had this thirst inside me

Since the beginning

 

As I drink

The wall cracks a little further

 

Suddenly I realize my stone walls

Are but sand

Not protecting....

 

But soaking in everything without a second thought

Crumbling under any pressure

And relying on something else to keep them strong

 

I drink the water....

Bitter

Cold

Yet necessary

 

I see my reflection in the pool

Who I really am

And realize this day

Would have never come

Had my walls

And my naivety

Never been challenged

 

I drink the waters of experiences

As my world crumbles down around me

 

Once I'm refreshed

I can begin to rebuild...

 

 

 

Please tell me what you think

    Ooh I like it. It's a scary and yet a familiar feeling to have your reality invaded and have the walls crumble, but I like the positive spin you put at the end that you will rebuild and with any luck, the walls be stronger the next time around.
