Crumbling

Part Two of Stressed

The wall that I built,

is now falling apart.

Piece by piece,

it hits the ground

with a bang

like a bass drum's beat.


This wall isn't any wall,

this wall protects me from the world of stress.

Now, the stress is breaking through.

Like my tears breaking over its barrier

and sliding down my cheek.


I sit and watch as my world crumbles.

The world of safety, happiness and ignorance.

The tide of stress is coming soon.


Waiting is the hard part,

I don't know what to expect this time

as each brick falls.

I must brace against the wave.


If not, I may crumble too.
