it’s all i am.
it’s all i’ll ever be,
a little girl with a wall of steel
a wall too high to climb
the strongest of men
with the will of a mouse
trying to overcome my boundary
attempt after attempt
failure after failure
he falls to the base and gazes upwards
the journey, too long
endurance, he has not
he doesn’t have the strength to love me
to break through my shell
to see me for nothing more than i am
someone who is hurt.
a little girl,
scared.
