My Tears

My tears fall when no ones around
and my secrets are being found
I want to tell everyone to leave
I dont want them to understand the
web I weave
So leave I am safe inside my wall
and stop trying to make it fall
My love and concern I try to hide
yet it gets hard to hold them inside
When I see a family whos happy an
full of love...I yearn to be more
than an outsider looking in
Is it so bad to want a family
who'll treat me right
and people I love hold me tight
Some times late at night
I cry wishing for some one to
tell me its going to be alright
yearning for this with no success
I begin building my wall higher
and thicker...
for if they fall I dont know what
I would do...

Walls are good I say. I

Walls are good I say. I built a mansion with my many walls. I would never want them to crumble. I wonder who's idea it was in the first place to tell people not to have walls? Hmmm.
