To Me, For Me
When my walls crumble down
Sun scorches through
Reflecting off my skin
Exposing
In that moment of weakness, cowardice and inferiority
That time when I would rather hide
If not for this scorching sun
Reflecting off of me
In that moment, my mind is under siege
By words of brilliance, phrases that cause movements and stanzas that make no sense at all, to none but me
But inspire a feeling of refuge
When you read as my walls crumble down
