Protection

Learned survival
at early age
performance always
as if on stage
never flinch
dare not hesitate
it is our fear
they evaluate
assuming weakness
despite strength
uphold defences
to any length
forge a garrison
and insulate
preservation
we actuate
emotional locks
become a shield
from any weapon
chosen to wield
