Unbreakable
Probably one of my favourite poems I've ever written...
These words they will not break me
My wounds in time will heal
This pain will go on to make me
These feelings I will learn to feel
In my mind I am unbreakable
Wrapped in chains of steel and woe
My inner solitude unmistakeable
I will live on to see tomorrow
Please do not mistake me
I am not asking for sympathy
Do not seek to penetrate me
I work alone on this mystery
I hope one day I will come off this rock
See life in colour again
That someone will find the key to this lock
So I can be normal, a lover, a friend
For even though you cannot break me
I am learning to be moulded
To allow others to try and fix me
This load alone need not be shouldered
Love others and be loved myself
Share my pain with someone else
Try to grow in my spiritual wealth
Allow this ice around my heart to melt
