No matter what i say it wont break
It shouts words dictated so clearly
Leaving cement spit all over my face
I'm starting to loose my mind
As i plea for this wall to shatter
I scream and i through punches
My bloody nuckles just make it fatter
I cross my arms and i start to shed tears
This battle has clearly been won
But, ho, not so fast, for look what i have
A book of matches will do the job
What is left of a brick barrior
Who'd have guessed it would catch fire
Lavender ashes show in the sunlight
Dissapearing with the wind,
I've accomplished my last desire. [comments] => 5 [counter] => 199 [topic] => 25 [informant] => imaginary [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => MiscPoems )

I love this metaphor. it's so sadly true. I thought I had a wall up, but, any guy I date definitely out does me and it's inifinitely frustrating. you definitely captured that frustration well. thanks for sharing!!

Very vivid, emotional writing. Well done! I like the use of metaphor.
