My Heart

Notice how my heart is like a cage Locked up, afraid to let others in Not wanting to get hurt again Will I ever be able to heal?

This poem as really good. Your analogy between your heart and a cage is excellent. It adds visual imagery. Nice writing. You will heal when you can let go. Then, you can move forward in a positive direction. Take care, Jessica. Lovingly, Dane

I know this feeling..the voice in the poem is afraid to allow the hurt back in...one day and step at a time.
