I live inside of walls since he left,
Caged inside of lines I never cross.
I hate how I love feeling safe on the other side,
Gaping at the possibilities so sweet yet scary.
I scare away people with the height of my walls,
Growing at an urgent pace.
As I wait ardently inside,
Wanting to step out of this dress of insecurity,
To strip my soul naked -
For someone who climbs those walls.
