Its hard to reach inside the heart of the one you love, when she is guarded behind a wall of tears.

"I love you"
The words echo around my head
My heart squeezes tight
No not again
"Whats wrong?"
Abuse, hatred, neglect
It all comes back
No not again
"Don't cry"
But the tears fall freely
free fall
And a wall erects
Divided
No not again.
Behind the wall of tears.

this poem grabs your attention i think. Your descriptions are very clear, too. And i think that the mystery in it makes it just that much better. Loved it! :)

hi jerry, really liked this one.... this person has been hurt and it's hard for her to believe that someone can actualy mean it when they say that they love her. the emotions come through very strong.... suppose everyone can relate to this. nice work
Posted: Jun 8, 2008
what do i say.....its beautiful yet sad at the same time.......a must read for all who think they alone are suffering these things.....
:)
Posted: Jun 9, 2008
boy, this one is a head turner!
Posted: Jun 9, 2008
I'm gone a few days and look what you go and do? You slip in a wonderful little poem! It was really beautiful and for some reason this morning it feels like you wrote it for me. :) I love it!
Posted: Jun 9, 2008
Very, very good.
Posted: Jun 9, 2008
Your poem very beautifully captures the helplessness of a guy who desperately loves this woman and is unable to find a way to make her trust him (bad childhood? past betrayals? I like to keep wondering!). I can't help thinking that the wall will shatter some day..... but that's the romantic in me!
Posted: Jun 9, 2008
Oh, such a sad poem! I can only hope that one day she lets the walls fall away, because she might surprised at what's waiting on the other side :) To me this poem speaks of true love: a girl who's been hurt in the past and the man who patiently waits for her to heal so he can show her something better. Beautiful! Thanks for bringing this lovely poem to my attention, Wandiola, I thought it was incredibly emotional and touching.

Superb...captured the emotions so well......and many of us guard our love behind walls once bitten so deep in love......The picture enhances it all....great writing....Take care Juliet
Posted: Jun 10, 2008
I like the repetition thing you've got there. And I'm not a big poetry person but I like this one. The emotions are just laid out there, and even then there's still room for interpretation. :D
Posted: Jun 10, 2008
This was very sad but good. A character that is afraid to love again because of his/her history... he/her is afraid of getting hurt again. The way you set it up is gorgeous^_^, I like the italics signalling the person's voice and then his/her thoughts are the rest of the words. At least that's what I thought it meant... I think that poems can have all kind's of scenarios, and this is the one I thought up. I liked this^_^!
I will be back to read some more of your stuff-- sorry about this comment coming late-- I've been busy.
Lot's of special chocolate to you,

Absolutely beautiful. I reckon I could relate to this poem in the future, I have so much pain in my life that when someone finally comes along and wants to be with me I'm going to be hiding 'behind the wall of tears' saying to myself 'No not again'.
The is my favourite of your work so far. I absolutely love this poem so much that you have actually inspired me to want to write a response to it...I'll tell you when I've posted it up.
Keep up the great work.
