Walls Poems | Examples

Come Out

Cme out
Door closed, surrounded by walls 
sealed inside , darkness, cries, sadness, lost soul
Look around, alone, scared, confusion, cold
I scream, anyone there?
No responce
I scream, please help me? 
NO responce
stand up walls too high
reach out to feel something 
nothing but darkness
I scream is this real
No responce
weakness, no strength, my legs collapse
I fall  crotched down in a ball , rocking slowly, tears fall
my hands grab my head, am I in trouble, the yelling echos in my head
I look up and see the light, but I cant reach it
the only sound is the voice in my head, 
I scream Please stop talking, I scream STOP!
I hold my breathe, 1 minute, 2 minutes exhale deep breathe in
open your eyes, stand up, leave those thoughts in the dark
You know it will come again, maybe less time
Written down: Come out, the world is right outside your door.
The child inside is an adult, fighting whats behind that closed door

painted walls

I ended up in this life—I have no idea how—
and along the way, I realized that the room—vast as it was—
had neither doors nor windows. "Had none" is an understatement, for they *were* there,
only behind the windows and doors lay painted walls—
depicting various scenes, various times of day, various faces.
And I swear, I’ve tried so many things in my life;
perhaps one day, a wall will fall,
letting me see the unseen, hear the unheard,
see, feel, hear, and taste the untasted.
But until then,
I must keep opening doors and windows,
because one never knows
what lies behind them.

I Once Thought

I regret now having once thought
That each new morning fresh hope brought,

And keys were meant to open doors,
Bars on windows protect what's yours,

Steep walls were meant for privacy.
Now I see how wrong one can be!

As I await for my release,
I pray to God for inner peace.

On The Walls Rimas Dissolutas

On the walls of a broken heart,
another sits between two teeth. 
Spiderwebs of lines splintering
shine when you smile a little bit.

The gap grows as you fall apart
freeing what is soft underneath.
Often dry heels splitting will sting
causing wicked pain in transit.

There is a crack in everything,
yet each flaw has a perfect fit.

Walls of Paradise

Echoes of Decayed Walls

Thick cold shadows stretch
as rotting walls attenuate the
terrifying echoes of a scream.

Abandoned Home

This garden’s neglected, the grass grew too tall 
The bushes and plants look half-dried 
Cracked slabs lay uneven, the dog’s water bowl
Is covered with leaves and dead flies 
Front door’s off the latch, windows wide open
No photos in frames on the mantelpiece
A phone on the table must’ve been broken
Unlikely it held fingerprints
Wormwood and ivy have grown way too large
Almost conceal the brick walls
Everything seems like completely discharged
Unavailable to any calls 
Was it the other day I saw you there? 
When was the last time we met? 
Tomorrow can’t come, cause it’s busy somewhere
No time for tea can be set.

Walls

Behind the garden wall I lie
And there’s a brick wall too
Another wall includes the sky
With all the tints of blue
When comes the night, walls disappear
I see the glimpse of home
And there we are, my darling dear
Until the light of dawn
Blurs our faces, and again
The walls return, as if 
They never disappeared then
When through the walls we lived.

June

The danger zone gets broader
Within four walls I hide
Got window holes in order
From where I look outside
After the sun goes down
And green turns indigo 
There’s nothing to be found
I haven’t seen before
But I can sense the air
It never smells the same
Since you’re no longer there
The air can’t call my name
Connection drops, then fits 
To drop again too soon
The birdies treat the trees
With melodies of June..

The Crystal Cage

Through walls of glass, the
naked daylight streams,
Exposing rooms where quiet 
shadows rest. 
Two lonely souls trapped in
forgotten dreams,
Each locked inside a cold,
separate nest.
The crystal palace lets the 
world look in,
Yet blocks the warmth of
any healing word,
Beneath one roof, the 
distance starts to win,
Their silent grief remains 
unseen, and unheard.
The husband watches night
fall from his bed,
The wife lies staring at the 
ceiling high,
The tender language of their 
past is dead,
Replaced by echoes of a 
heavy sigh.
This fragile fortress offers no 
defense,
Where transparent walls
build a fortress wall,
The love they harbored,
once so deep and dense,
Now shatters softly as the 
dark hours fall.

The Anatomy of a Bleeding House

Cold floorboards groan beneath 
the weight,
Of shadows trapped inside the gate.
The walls are bleeding memories
past,
In rooms where dying breaths were 
cast.

A sudden chill, a phantom stride,
With nowhere left for you to hide.
The staircase creaks without a 
foot,
And all your courage turns to soot.

The mirrors distort a twisted face,
That claims this dark, forsaken 
place.
You hear the latch, you feel the
dread,
The house belongs to what is
dead.

The Walls

The Walls 

 

Our bodies, our minds, our actions 
    Our desires and needs hit walls every day. 

We may choose to accept the wall, 
    Let it slow us down, then go on with our day. 

Some walls are of our own making (inner), 
    Some walls are imposed by others (outer). 

Sometimes we fight against unjust walls, 
    Sometimes we let them bring us down. 
    Sometimes there are many mental walls  
      We need to navigate around. 

The walls are there to restrict us 
    To protect us 
    To keep us from expanding, exploring 
    To keep us enslaved 
    To separate us from others. 

May the walls in your life not stop you from being you.

These walls will fall

A fragile wall stands between us and the next
Whether made of rocks or wood, it was meant to shatter
This wall separates us… yet Mother tears it down to the soil
She says we must unite as one person,
However, we divided ourselves to remain behind our wall
This fragile wall was meant to fall
As much as we may build it high to avoid one another…
They were always meant to crumble.

Let us embrace our Mother’s wish as she forgives our ignorance
Allow us to unite as one body and pursue Her dreams
We will be a single unit described as HUMAN
For those rocks were meant to break
As we are supposed to communicate with our souls intertwined,
Engage on a level deeper than the walls we cage ourselves in
Mother is sending us a message; we must listen…
So, until we acknowledge Her bleeding before us,
These walls will fall.

Walls Of Insecurities

Forever apart I still watch over you
Sometimes the pain still burns
How I try to make sense of my world now
50 times over this age ain't so lucky
Harder now to search and rescue this love I have
I build my foundations on questions with no answers
Sure I try to build a connection with others
But still that fear takes over
Over think is what I do
Over compensate for my flaws
It's an enternal war of emotion
So many scars so many tears
Long into the night is when I scream alone
In a battle with my demons
Weapon of choice hide it away
Seeking out validation for an outstanding warrant
On my peace lock it away maybe till I die
Harder it is to say to those I need 
I like you I love all your about
Sometimes it seems to fall on deaf ears
Sometimes the reflection is preaching so many self absorb lies
Can't recognize the truth
In my eyes I will never be good enough
Until I find that smile from the one that can break through all my walls of insecurities.

Love turned into walls

How can you say I dont care
I dont think it's very fair
That you say I've put up walls
Higher and higher that won't fall
But the truth is it's no lie
I can even tell you why
My heart has shut down with you
Leaving me so lost and blue
You have changed from when we met
And I will never forget
The man that you used to be
When you were in love with me
