Armoured Defense

I am only as strong as the armour that makes me stand tall
Find the right latch and it falls off in pieces
Weakness is all that is left; my rubbery being collapses

Author notes

I tried to work more on imagery with this one...just how important my defense is. I need that facade to help me stand tall. Poetry seems to be that latch that shows my weakness...I collapse and let emotions, tears, and thoughts spill out of me. Sometimes we need that armour to hold us up.
