Built upA Poem by ANNABuilt up a wall to keep my heart from falling apart like humpy dumpy Without the glue to put me back together I was more than broken Like fragile china that was once worth millions now becomes worthless Rushing to gather the my pride, my morning tears and my seducible lips Before they become stitched together Never able to accept the melting charm from a man When lost and confession seems to be your only friend It’s when evil seeps into your throat down your arms and numbs your toes Half of the glass empties when the strength of his hands lacks affection Isn’t something missing beside those peering eyes that kissed on down the pain That turned the page on one knee to prove love is alive and not invisible Now questions weep on the memory how it use to be Dreams of possibility sharing worlds shatter I have build up an unbreakable bond to keep my heartbeat from going off like a ticking time bomb Without the red, white and yellow wires to hold me together I was more damaged Like a battery that was once charged now drains It’s now too late to feel the impact of the blunt force The ripping sound of my flesh being pulled off my bones Numbness takes hold as he walks out the door Without the medical attention to apply pressure I’ll bleed out each and every drop of what love God shed for me His words wheeled softly around my throat, loving me better, hurting me slowly The passionate state of mind lights up the stage, clearing off his skin tone lies I enter into a selfish man world, believing I could renew it Put so much faith in us that I forced his heart to reconsider Truth is set up to imprison you No doubt you’ll be in the shot light But I didn’t like being built up Just to be taken down by the lack of love that didn’t even exist Torn between the loneliness and calling you eats at my pride Like humpy dumpy someone comes along and puts him back together Although, with me seasons change and I’m still left in the rain Like a washable marker, erase without a smudge… © 2010 ANNAAuthor's Note
