She asked for love

But all she got was hate

She put walls up

That no one could penetrate

The walls stood tall and sturdy

Who knew one person could make them crumble

Some build it up

Some break it down

Hers is tall

No one is around

She climbs to the top and falls

She hated her walls

but they were there for a reason

People would tease her of treason.

She asked for forgiveness

But all she got was rejection

Her eyes tell a story that no one sees.

Her eyes close as she drifts to sleep

She wanted to dream but instead stayed awake.

She thought about the day

About how she wanted all her pain to go away.

Her walls are still up

They're taller than ever

The sadness in her eyes are there now more than ever.
